Library Afloat sets sail!

This month sees the launch of an exciting new service, Manly Library Afloat, a mobile library positioned at Manly Wharf that will operate weekdays between 7.15am and 9am.

This service commences on Monday 26th of March and is aimed primarily at ferry and bus commuters so they can make the most of their precious time.

A golf cart style vehicle (see picture) funded with a grant from the State Library of New South Wales has been custom fitted to accommodate over 1,000 titles (books and audio books).

Our vision is to make Manly Library accessible to all members of the community and ‘Manly Library Afloat’ is part of achieving that goal.

The official launch of the service will be held on Tuesday the 27th of March in the Manly Wharf forecourt from 7:30am to 9am.
