What a novel idea! Northern Beaches will be one of the first councils in Australia to open its library doors day and night, following a successful 2022 three-month trial.
The initiative has been designed to meet the changing needs of the community.
Northern Beaches Mayor Michael Regan said this branch has been transformed into a modern, flexible library that is available to members whenever they need it.
“We are so thrilled to offer this as a permanent service. Not only has this seen increase visitation and usage of this branch by re-imagining the space, but it has met the growing needs of the 24hr economy,” Mayor Regan said.
The concept has been two years in the making and resulted in the creation of a welcoming and accessible space that meets the varying needs of visitors.
Forestville Library 24/7 is available to library members aged 16 and over. For more information visit the library website.
