Have a volunteer pick out library materials for you and bring them right to your home.

The Home Library Service is a free and convenient way for housebound residents to borrow library items. The service is available to anyone who is unable to visit the library branches due to illness, frailty or disability.

Items are selected to meet each person's individual interests and needs and delivered directly to their home. A friendly volunteer visits on a monthly basis and delivers an assortment of library materials to match your profile.  These are chosen from the library's collection of:

• Books, DVDs, CDs and magazines
• Subtitled videos
• Large print books
• Talking books
• Material in 14 community languages

Holds can be placed on particular items and delivered when available.

This service is also available to caregivers of people with disability or illness unable to access branches.

For information on accessing the Home Library service, please call the Seniors and Volunteers Coordinator at 9401 0725.
