Libraries Unlimited Libraries Unlimited believes in the unlimited potential of library services to make a positive difference to people’s lives and communities.

Libraries Unlimited is a Devon-based charity responsible for running libraries in Devon and Torbay. We believe in the unlimited potential of library services in the UK to make a positive difference to people’s lives and communities through a shared love of reading and access to high quality information and facilities. Starting with our operation in Devon, we are taking a new approach – reimagining

library services and adopting new methods that allows us to innovate to support our social goals. Across all the areas in which we operate, we aim to bring ideas, imagination, creativity and knowledge to enrich lives and build thriving communities, providing inspiring spaces, and supporting learning through a variety of resources, support and events.

Volunteers bring so much to our libraries; they make a real difference to their local communities. We are grateful to all of our invaluable volunteers. Your dedication, kindness and passion inspire us every day!

Alice Ealdmoor, our Volunteering Development Manager, shared: “This is my first Volunteers' Week with Libraries Unlimited and I feel very lucky to be working alongside such a dedicated group of volunteers. In just a few months, I have been struck by the zeal and commitment so evident in everyone I meet across the charity, but especially the volunteer teams. It has been a pleasure to be a part of the 2026 Libraries Unlimited Volunteer Awards; every individual nomination was inspiring and altogether they show how volunteering really is enriching lives and building communities across Devon and Torbay.”
