If you need to film in a library, we encourage you to consider a public one! Not only are these buildings are authentic and cinematic, they also offer a wide range of architectural styles and time periods. Plus, choosing to film in a public library is a way of supporting these vital community spaces by providing revenue to the Council. Win-win!
Croydon has a number of libraries to suit your filming needs, and we’d like to introduce you to a few of them here. Click through for a gallery of photos –
Croydon Central Library – community library with a typical suspended board ceiling and unique, curved and sky-light corridor
Shirley Library – town library with lots of natural light and a striking art deco exterior
New Addington Library – contemporary library with ICT facilities and children’s area
This is just a selection of the borough’s libraries, so if you don’t see anything above to fit your brief we’re sure to find it elsewhere. Share your brief with us via info@croydonfilmoffice.co..uk and we’ll help you find the perfect location.
