Opening the new-look library, Councillor Jim Fletcher said: "I was delighted to be asked to officially open the new Giffnock Library.
"It has always been popular but it's even more so now with its great new look and modern facilities. It was designed to be a real community hub, and it's proving to be just that.
"The feedback from those who use the library has been superb and we hope our locals see it as a place that is truly at the centre of the Giffnock community."
