Introducing the new-look What’s On at the Library brochure, available to view on our website now! This first edition features highlighted programs and workshops, and all of our online author events for September and October. The brochure is just available in digital format for now, while our libraries are closed and in-person events are suspended, but in the future you will find copies to pick up in-branch every two months. This smaller printed program will be easier to navigate and will help us to minimise our impact on the environment. Today we also launch a new ‘What’s On’ section on the library website. Improved functionality on these pages means that you can search and filter for library events and programs that interest you. You can also create, download and print customised event calendars! Booking into library events online is simpler, too. We realise that change can sometimes be difficult, which is why we’re on-hand to help you. Library staff are ready to assist you to search for events on the website, print customised event calendars or book you into events or programs. Call us on (03) 4201 0645 for assistance during business hours, or contact your local branch.
For the best library experience make sure you are a member of Geelong Regional Libraries. If you don’t have a membership card, why not join up for free now?
You should also be sure to sign up for our monthly eNewsletter – it’s the best way to stay up-to-date with news and events at the library.
