Lilydale Library flooded, Birds of Yarra talk cancelled

Lilydale Library suffered some flooding last night. As a result the Birds of the Yarra Catchment talk has been cancelled and rescheduled for Tuesday 17th July.

The library will open as normal, however the affected areas have been partitioned and if driers are needed to dry the carpet, the library may need to close at some time during the day.

I will keep members apprised of the status of the library as information comes to hand.
