The best place to visit your library right now is online. All library members have access to an extensive eLibrary collection. If you have kids home from school - check out the eResources.
There's plenty for all ages including free access to Encyclopedia Britannica Online, Hobbies & Crafts Reference Centre, Science Reference Centre, Story Box Library, Trove, Tumble Books and Ziptales, which is a great literacy and reading resource.
For library members who can't access the eLibrary, a Click/Call & Collect service will operate from the front door of all the libraries. Call your local library for further details.
