Keen to get some summer reading done over the festive season?
Our Libraries will be open reduced hours during the Christmas and New Year's period.
Meri Kirihimete me te Hape Nū Ia! Happy holidays and all the best for 2025 to our wonderful community. We can't wait to continue to share new books with you, celebrate stories together at StoryTots, and welcome you at one of our Libraries again in the new year.

Mobile Library
Our two Mobile Libraries, Pūrehurehu and Mangaroa, will be taking some time off the road over the summer, too. Their last visits to schools, kura, preschools, and kindergartens will be on Friday, 29 November.
Many of our regular programmes and services will be taking a break over the holiday period. Visit our programmes page or check the Hot Seats page to find out when groups meet and services are back in session.
