I'd like to wish everyone a Happy New Year and thanks for reading our blogs. Our libraries are closing at 3pm today and are closed New Year's Day. With the exception of Croydon library, the bookchutes will be open so you may return items while we are closed.

Reminder of the Christmas hours

Everyone's so busy this time of year it's often easy to forget a thing like a library book but here's a few tips to make sure you get your items back on time or renewed over the Christmas break.

1. View the branch Christmas opening hours. Note that all libraries and mobiles are closed this year on Christmas eve.
2. Make sure you know your PIN number for your library card. You can find this out by contacting library staff on 1300 737 277 during opening hours. You can also apply to receive a PIN via email. It's best to fill out the PIN application today while staff are at work and monitoring the emails coming in.
3. Return items while we are closed through the bookchutes. All branches except Croydon have after hours bookchutes. Staff will be emptying the bookchutes over the Christmas break to prevent any overflow.
4. If you have any library related issues while the libraries are closed, please fill out our contact form. We will get in touch with you and try to resolve the issue as soon as we are back at work (Thursday 27th December).

Have a wonderful Christmas break and stay safe on the roads.

Cheers, Maryanne
