Exciting news for Deans Marsh library customers! The new Deans Marsh library locker at the Deans Marsh Community Cottage is now available, providing members with convenient 24-hour access to collect reserved library items.

A self-service book drop is also on-site for returning library items at any time, which gives another convenient option.

The library locker makes it easier to access our collection closer to home. Here’s how it works:

• Browse over 400,000 library items in our online catalogue
• Select and reserve books and other library items online, choosing Deans Marsh as the collection location option
• We'll send an SMS or email when items are ready to collect
• Visit the library locker to collect available items 24/7
• Return library items using the self-service book drop

The library locker compliments the mobile library van visits, and our team continues to visit regularly to provide support and maintain the valued connection the community relies on. Regular weekly visits start from Tuesday 10 November, 10:30am -12noon.

This new service is now available for use with your library membership.

This project is proudly supported by the State Government’s Living Libraries Infrastructure Program and delivered in partnership with Surf Coast Shire Council and Deans Marsh Community Cottage.
