Temporary access issue with library catalogue

Tuesday 5 May, 2025

We're currently experiencing a minor technical issue affecting access to our library catalogue from our website.

Access still available

The good news is the catalogue is available and working—you can access it directly at https://geelong.spydus.com/ while we work to resolve the problem.

Our website is still live and working as normal - only links to the catalogue are affected. You'll notice this using the search bar from the home page & other catalogue links from the menus.

In the meantime, please visit https://geelong.spydus.com/ for all your catalogue searches.

We apologise for the inconvenience and thank you for your patience. We'll let you know when access is back to normal.
