Goulburn Mulwaree Library launches click and collect service
Published on 20 April 2020
Make a BOOKing! Goulburn Mulwaree Library is offering a new click and collect BOOKing service to provide essential access to Library books and audio-books, DVDs, CDs, games, and magazines while the Library is closed.
The team at Goulburn Mulwaree Library believe that having access to books and other resources is essential for the health and wellbeing of the Goulburn Mulwaree community during these unprecedented and difficult times. From Monday 27 April, Library members will be able to borrow from the Library using the new click and collect BOOKing service.
To use the service, Library members just need to make a reservation online via the Library’s catalogue.
When reserved items are ready for collection, Library members will be notified via email or SMS, and can then visit the front of the Library between 10am-12pm and 2pm-4pm weekdays to collect reserved items. The Library returns chute will also be open weekdays 10am-12pm and 2pm-4pm for returning borrowed items.
Whether you’re reading a great new release novel, or catching up on classics; looking for craft and hobby ideas, helping kids learning from home, or just looking for some great movies to pass the time, the Library has something to suit everyone.
“Reading is a great way to feel connected to the world, and find a little bit of joy in these tough times”, said Library Manager Erin Williams.
“We are so pleased to be able to continue providing access to Library resources, whether it’s via our online collections or using our new click and collect BOOKing service. Please get in touch with us if you need some help reserving items or re-setting your password”.
When coming to collect your items from the Library, please maintain social distancing measures, and follow directions from Library staff. If you are unwell or have any symptoms of illness please do not come to the Library. Library staff will not serve you if you are symptomatic.
For more information or assistance, please call the Library on (02) 4823 4435 or email library@goulburn.nsw.gov.au
