Corio Library open: Temporary disruption to footpath access

Tuesday 12 September

Corio Library is open as usual for customers; however, there are temporary disruptions to access over the next two weeks for customers.

The footpath along Cox Road is being upgraded as part of the Northern Aquatic and Community Hub project. This means there is temporarily no access via the footpath along Cox Road (from Princes Highway to Moa Street). In addition, the parking near the library is also very limited.

If you have concerns about getting to Corio Library, please get in touch with our friendly staff at (03) 4201 0658 to discuss options.

You can also arrange to collect your holds at any other library in our network - including Lara, Geelong West or Vines Road. Find all our library locations on our website. Remember, there are no late fees for overdue items, so feel free to hold on to your items if needed.

We're looking forward to the completion of construction, which will mean everyone can enjoy ample parking and a bright new community precinct. We appreciate your patience and understanding during this time.
