Welcome to The Library – The Home of Slow, Authentic Dating

Since 2021, The Library has offered a thoughtful alternative to swipe culture: a place where meaningful connections grow at your pace.

Originally launched on the Isle of Man, we began welcoming members from London and the South East in 2024—and we’re now over 1,000 strong and growing.

Here, dating is different. There are no photos, no snap judgments, and no pressure. Just one daily question—drawn from our library-inspired categories—to spark genuine conversation and connection.

This is slow dating: private, intentional, and refreshingly real.

Free to start – your first two connections are on us

Only pay when you connect – from just £1 with no ads paywall

Safe and private – you choose when and if to meet

We’re constantly improving The Library with your feedback, so it stays one of the most authentic and welcoming spaces to meet someone new.
