Four libraries in Edinburgh will operate as coronavirus test centres until at least the end of August.
The libraries, which began operating as test centres on Monday March 22 are Leith Library, Newington Library, Oxgangs Library, and Sighthill Library.
The buildings will be operated by the NHS for this period and no library transactions or staff will be available during the period that they are in use, but they are open online to borrow ebooks, audiobooks, magazines and newspapers.
All other libraries remain closed.
