Drysdale Library will close from 29 August for 2 months

The Drysdale Library will be redeveloped to increase community space to allow for more activities, improve layout and increase public computers with internet access from two computers to ten computers.

 

For this to happen the Drysdale Library and the Geelong Council's Drysdale Customer Service Centre will close temporarily from Monday 29 August 2011 for approximately two months.

 

The Geelong Libraries website advises library members to access the service at other branches in Ocean Grove, Queenscliff or Newcomb or via the mobile library stops at Portarlington, Leopold and St Leonards. 

More information is available from the Geelong Libraries website.

The grant will also allow for more computers with internet access, a better customer service centre and a youth space. Planning is currently underway..."
