Library Catalogue and Online Services

 

Request And Information Service

Information on almost anything can be found in the library.

You are welcome to use the OPAC terminals (Online Public Access Catalogue) to trace items in our library - by title, author, subject and series. OPAC's give up-to-date information showing if an item is on loan, on the shelf, or has been reserved.

The library staff are there to help you. Please ask if you cannot find what you want. For items not on the shelves or not in stock, make a request and we will try to obtain them for you via the State Library of Western Australia.

Current postage rates are payable on each reservation, or you may choose to be notified by email.
