Whittlesea Library

The heart of our community

Opening in 2014, Whittlesea Library is situated on the land of the Wurundjeri Wilam peoples. It is like a second home for our members as it provides a lot of heart and a strong country feel.

Library location and facilities

Located in the Whittlesea Community and Activity Centre, the library offers many welcoming spaces including:

an outdoor courtyard with a garden and room for children to play or families to have a picnic lunch
a vibrant children’s area for Storytimes and reading
a flexible and comforting multipurpose lounge area, whether you’re breastfeeding and want some privacy, or a teen wanting to study or play a game after school
a warm and welcoming fireplace and read a book or newspaper in the colder months.

For those looking for a dedicated place to work or study, the Council rooms within the Community and Activity Centre are available to book.

Events for all

Our library offers a variety of events including Storytimes, Tech Help, Justice of the Peace drop-in sessions, and Carer’s Catch Ups. We love our library and are immensely proud of our strong connection to the local community.
