Facilities and programs
City Library is a place for you to access cutting edge technology and experience a variety of programs, events and exhibitions all year round.

The Library has plenty of comfortable spaces for you to enjoy. On sunny days you can relax in the Outdoor Reading room which has ramp access, and a range of meeting rooms and spaces are available for hire.

The City Library offers a range of programs designed to create, connect and inspire such as the Digital Hub, Media Lab, Innovation Lab, History Hub and is home to several reading groups where new members are always welcome. Kids love our school holiday activity program.
