Changes coming to Lara Library this May

Wednesday 2 April 2025

We're updating the interior space at Lara Library over the next month. We'll reorganise the collection during this time to create a larger children's area and a better access to the adult and youth collection.

Throughout May, books and shelving will be relocated.  While the library will still be open to customers, there will be some noise and limited access to the collection while the work is undertaken.

We appreciate your patience as we make Lara Library even better for our community.
