As we prepare to relocate to the new Boronggook Drysdale Library, the current Drysdale library (Hancock Street, Drysdale) will close on Saturday 25 March at 2.00pm.
We will resume service from the brand-new Boronggook Drysdale library on Thursday 13 April from 9am.
During this transition, customers won't be able to return items to Drysdale Library. So, while we're closed, we'd like your help to 'babysit the books'!
Please hold onto any items you have borrowed (or return to another Geelong Regional Libraries chute near you) until we're in our new home.
Remember, we are now fine free, so there is no penalty for keeping items a little longer.
Of course, all other libraries in the Geelong Regional Libraries' network remain open and available for you to access. The closest libraries to Drysdale Library are listed below:
Our eCollection remains available 24/7
Thanks to the local community for their patience and understanding during this transition.
