Eden Library to close for renovations

29 July 2019

Eden Library will be closed for renovations from Saturday 3 August 2019 and will reopen on Saturday 10 August.

Thanks to NSW State Library funding, new mobile shelving and a new children’s reading nook will be installed during the closure.

Staff will also take the opportunity to rearrange shelving to improve study areas and seating, update signage and arrange for carpet cleaning.

Acting Library Coordinator, Samantha Fenton, says mobile shelving will give staff lots of flexibility with layout and options around events.

“People can still return items through the after-hours returns box, which is located to the left of the Eden Library entrance and we won’t be sending out any overdue notices during the closure period.

“We will be providing printing and copying services at the Eden Access Centre, where WiFi will also be available,” added Ms Fenton.

Services at other Shire libraries at Bega, Tura Beach and Bermagui are unaffected by the closure.

Online services will still be available 24/7 at www.begavalley.nsw.gov.au/library.
