We’re delighted to announce the launch of the first ever Geelong Regional Libraries’ app!
Simply download the app to your smart phone or tablet, and you can search the library catalogue; borrow, renew and place holds on collection items; book into library events; view your library account details; and more… all from the convenience of your mobile device. The app can be downloaded, for free, from Google Play or the App Store – just search for ‘Geelong Libraries’. If you need assistance, please speak with a staff member at your local branch – they will be happy to help. Find out more here.
