Casuarina Library update

Casuarina Library will be temporarily closed to accommodate building works on the courtyard on Saturday 30 September, Sunday 1 October and Monday 2 October 2023. We will reopen on Tuesday 3 October 2023. The courtyard will be inaccessible for approximately 2-3 weeks. Remember that our Library return chutes are available 24/7. We appreciate your help!

If we don't have an item you would like, you can suggest an item for purchase. If the item is recent and likely to be popular, the library will try to purchase it.

If the item is older, specialised or doesn't fit our collection guidelines, we can try to borrow it from another library through an inter-library loan.
