Torquay Library will be closed for refurbishment from Monday 8 October, reopening on Saturday 13 October.
During that period, library holds will be relocated to the Waurn Ponds Library. Any holds that are uncollected at the time of the closure, or made during the closure period, will be relocated to Waurn Ponds and may be collected there.
Geelong Regional Libraries staff will be working hard to accommodate the needs of its regular Torquay Library users at Waurn Ponds and other Geelong Regional Libraries branches.
We apologise for any inconvenience, but we are sure our customers will appreciate the refurbished Torquay Library when it reopens on 13 October.
