Barnsley Central Library has a large collection of books (fiction and non-fiction), a reference section, and a learning centre that offers self-study courses on a wide range of topics.

Barnsley Chronicle is a weekly newspaper (with accompanying web site) that covers pretty much everything that happens in the town. If there's something newsworthy happening, chances are it'll be printed in here. The paper is published on Friday in a number of editions, each one for a different area of the town. The town centre one is called simply the "town" edition.
