Library Holiday Closures: Our libraries will close at 12pm on Friday 20 December and regular hours will resume from Thursday 2 January. Returns chutes will be closed at all branches (except Lambton). However, due dates will be extended beyond the closure period - so there's no rush to return your items. Find out more about our Library Holiday Closures on the Our Branches page.
