Edinburgh Board Game Library has hundreds of board games to be borrowed! Take them home and play with friends and family.
After a busy few weekends of moving, we’re thrilled to announce our reopening in a new location! Here are some important updates:
Join us for a soft reopening on Thursday, 3rd April, from 6-8pm at our new home in Room 2, Southside Community Centre. You can browse and borrow games, but reservations are not yet available.
Due to space constraints, some games are stored offsite. These will be marked as “In storage” in our online inventory and cannot be borrowed. We aim to rotate these games in once we’re fully settled.
Online reservations will be available from Saturday, 6th April, for collection starting Thursday, 10th April. We’re updating our inventory to ensure accuracy.
Our new shelves allow you to see more of our collection! Come along, browse, and ask for recommendations. We have many popular games ready to borrow.
To ensure fair access, we’re reducing the borrowing limit for Regular and Concession memberships from four to three games. We’ll monitor this and adjust as needed.

We are open every Thursday 6-8pm at our hub in Tollcross.
