Mayfield Library is Getting New Carpet!

We’re excited to announce that Mayfield Library will be getting a fresh upgrade with new carpet! To complete this work, the library will be closed for one week from Monday 30 September, and will reopen on Tuesday 8 October.

If you have reserved items waiting for collection at Mayfield Library, don’t worry—we’ll automatically extend your pick-up window by one week. Alternatively, you can call our friendly team at 02 4974 5300 to arrange collection from another branch.

All other branches will remain open with regular hours during this time.

We appreciate your understanding as we make this improvement and apologise for any inconvenience. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out via phone or email at library@ncc.nsw.gov.au.

Labour Day Closures: Our libraries will be closed on Monday 7 October for the Labour Day public holiday. Normal hours resume on Tuesday 8 October. Lambton Library’s Open+ technology will provide access for library members aged 16 and up, and those aged under 16 accompanied by an adult or carer, anytime between 7am and 9pm on the public holiday.

Return chutes will be open at all libraries (except Mayfield). Members can renew borrowed items via the Newcastle Libraries app or website.
