Library Connect November 2024

You are here

This edition of Library Connect has the usual listing of new books, a few articles for your interest and an invitation to browse some more books which are ‘free to good home’. The books are good quality discards not required in the library collection and are available now.

The library is staffed Mon - Fri 9.30 - 4.30 and Alex can also be contacted by email or phone (02 6250 9480) if you need assistance.

The “click and collect” boxes in the Visitor Centre are still available for returning items, and Alex is very happy to leave items there for collection if that’s easier than visiting the library.
