Library closure to usher in a new chapter

Sydenham’s library and customer service office will close from Friday, June 14, to Sunday, June 16, for building work.

Brimbank council said the work would improve the library layout and help create more seating by maximising floor
space.

During the closure, customers will still be able to renew and reserve items, borrow eBooks and eAudio books and access electronic databases and resources via the online library.

Services at the library will be reduced on Thursday, June 13, to help prepare for the work.

Computers will be unavailable from 5-8pm on the Thursday.

However the after hours book return chute will remain open throughout the work period.

The due date for library items will also be amended so they will not fall due during the temporary closure.

Brimbank’s other four libraries – at Deer Park, Keilor, St Albans and Sunshine – will remain open during this time.

The council customer service centre at Sydenham library will be closed during this period.

Community members can visit the Keilor or Sunshine service centres on Friday, June 14, or visit brimbank.vic.gov.au
