The Library will be closed from 5th August until 2nd September to allow the Library to relocate. The branch libraries at Peak Hill, Trundle and Tullamore will continue to operate as normal.

The services that will still be available are:

From Monday, 26th August returns can be made at 2/250 Clarinda Street.

FREE PUBLIC COMPUTER ACCESS

During the time the Library is closed, free public computer access will be provided at Parkes Shire Council’s Administration Building at 2 Cecile Street, Monday to Friday from 8.30am – 5pm.

• Computer access will be limited to 30 minutes for essential use (ie, printing, emails & research)
• Computers will not be available for recreational use
• Scanning, printing and photocopying will be available at current charges.

YOUR ONLINE LIBRARY
