The library will be closed for refurbishment from late May to July 2026. We're installing new shelving, lighting and furniture, and changing the layout to create a more comfortable, accessible and community‑focused space.

We've made some changes so members can continue to use the library's resources during the closure:

• Increased loan limits and extended due dates so you can borrow what you need before the closure and keep them until the library reopens.

• Boosted the number of titles available on our eResources.

Books on Wheels deliveries will continue as usual and you’ll have full access to our digital collection through the library app and website. 

The after‑hours returns chute will remain open if you want to return items before the library reopens.

Our much‑loved Baby Rhyme Time and Storytime sessions will take a little break during the closure, but don’t worry they’ll be back in July. Until then, you can keep the fun going at home with our online Baby Rhyme Time videos on Facebook.

You can continue to enjoy library events and services at the following nearby libraries:

• Town of Cambridge Library 
• City of Perth Library 
• City of Stirling Library 
• City of Subiaco Library 
• State Library of Western Australia 

Learn more about the project on the library website.
