For the littlies! 👧

THE LIBRARIAN
01 – 03 OCT 2026

We are a street library for BOOKS - not CDs, DVDs, or anything else. Lifeline Bookfest takes these, so it would be most appreciated if you could donate them to Lifeline instead of making them my problem. Thank you 🙏

Voting for Radio National's Top 100 Australian Books countdown is now open! 📚

Head to our website to create your shortlist, and vote for the Australian books you love.

Who do you think will win this year's countdown?

Only had time for a minor restock this weekend. Thanks for the donations 💖

‼️Edit: Due to unforeseen circumstances this has been postponed ‼️
I’ve had one lovely person offer to help (thanks, Chris!), so we’re having a painting party on Saturday 10am-1pm.
We have a number of new cabinets that need undercoats and then a couple of top coats, and we have old cabinets outside that could do with a bit of ‘freshening up’.
Come for 20 minutes or come for the full time, but please be aware that there is no access to a toilet because of the dogs.

Wanted: Donations of toddler board books 📚
With all the young families in our neighbourhood now, we’re in constant need of toddler board books to keep our shelf full. If anyone has any lying around, we’d be most grateful for them.
There is a large donations bin behind the library cabinets that they can be placed in. 📌If you’re new to the page, and don’t know our location, please use Google Maps to find us ❤️
