​We have an active and engaged senior community and we offer services to help you make the most of our libraries.

You can join our libraries in person at one of our nine branches, or you can join our libraries online and then you can immediately access our eLibrary, which is open 24-7 with eBooks, audiobooks, movies, magazines and more.

Bus to Library

If you find it difficult to get to the library, our free Bus to Library service can help; find out more information on our Bus to Library page, or call 9707 9733.

Home Library Service 

If you are housebound due to mobility difficulties or illness, our Home Library Service can bring books to your door. You can find more information on our Home Library Service page,  or call the Library on 9707 9733.
