As a result of the flood event in March, the carpet on the ground floor of the library is scheduled for replacement. While previous closures allowed the carpet to be cleaned and dried, it is now time to replace the affected carpet. In case you missed it, you can view footage of the flood event here.
If all goes to plan, we’ll be closed from 3pm Thursday, 11 September to 12pm Monday, 15 September for carpet replacement works — but there’s still plenty you can do with us!
While the building is closed, you can still:
Library staff will be on-site to assist with reservation collection. We are also happy to help with phone queries on 6820 3600, so please call if you need assistance with accessing our library eResources, renewing items, etc. There will also be library staff present at the Albany Leisure and Aquatic Centre micro-library on Friday, 12 September from 9:30 am-12 pm.
We look forward to welcoming you back soon to a refreshed space — thank you for your patience and support!
