Our Home Library Service ensures the information, recreation, cultural and educational needs of all library members are met by bringing the library service to the user.
This service is available to residents who are unable to visit the library and do not have family or friends who can assist them with either transport or selection and collection of library material.

- are able to visit a library, but due to mobility restrictions, are unable to transport library items home.
- live in residential assisted living establishments such as nursing homes, hostels, hospitals.
- are engaged in full-time care for people with a disability.

- a Home Library Service Membership form must be completed and returned to the library.
