Have Your Say on Wollondilly’s Draft Library Strategy

Public libraries play a fundamental role in building communities, providing not only a wide range of information, educational and entertainment resources for people of all ages, but also as a place to engage in events and make connections with others.

To make sure the Wollondilly Library continues to play this vital role in the future, Council is seeking feedback on the draft Wollondilly Library Strategy 2020 – 2026. 

With the Shire’s population expected to grow in the coming years, Wollondilly Library will move to a new larger building, as part of the broader Community, Cultural and Civic Precinct in Picton. 

The draft Wollondilly Library Strategy identifies the enhanced services and spaces that the Wollondilly Library could offer, particularly during the transition time as it grows into that new space, as well as beyond.

Wollondilly Mayor Matthew Deeth said, “We want to hear from library users and the general community about what they think their library should look like.”

“We want to ensure that the library meets Wollondilly’s needs now and into the future, so I encourage everyone to take a look at the strategy and give us your feedback.” 

Community input was an integral part of drafting the Strategy and Council wants to ensure that it supports opportunities for inclusion, connection, participation, creation and literacy.

Consultation will close on 18 September 2020. For more information please call Council on 4677 1100.
