If you are visiting one of the local markets at Smiths Avenue, Ōtara or Wesley, why not drop by at one of our mobile libraries for some fun activities to do?
Our mobile libraries will be popping up at these markets every week to offer everyone a great selection of books, magazines, audiobooks, digital resources and free internet access.
Visitors to the mobile libraries can also ask our librarians for more information on the upcoming 2022 local elections and help you enrol to vote.
Councillor Alf Filipaina, Chair of the Parks, Arts, Community and Events Committee, encourages everyone to make the most of the pop-up mobile libraries across Tāmaki Makaurau.
“Mobile libraries play a vital role in connecting communities, providing more than just books, they are community spaces where everyone gets a chance to learn new things and connect with different people.”
Removing overdue fines
With a three-month long amnesty that started on 1 July 2022, now is a great time for Aucklanders to get back to the libraries and explore the wide range of resources and services that is on offer.
Manager of the Mobile Library Service Jo Brewster says libraries are there to serve and support communities and hopes the amnesty period will encourage everyone to come back and become an active library member again.
“We know overdue fines can stop people from coming back to our libraries and we want to remove this as a barrier. If you have any questions about your library account, feel free to come have a chat with our librarians onboard who will be happy to help you out and clear the charges from your account.”
