10 Reasons to Join a Library
It's Free!
Getting a library card costs nothing, but opens the door to thousands of books, movies, audiobooks, and more — most at no charge.
Access to a World of Reading
From bestsellers to local authors, graphic novels to large print, your library offers something for every age and interest.
Free Wi-Fi, Computers, and Tech Help
Whether you're checking emails, applying for jobs, or learning new digital skills, the library has the tech — and friendly staff to help.
Programmes for All Ages
Join book clubs, attend author talks, take part in crafting, tech workshops, storytimes, or school holiday events — there’s always something happening.
Entertainment at Your Fingertips
Stream movies, borrow DVDs, or dive into an eBook or audiobook through your library’s digital collection — all from the comfort of home (or the library).
A Safe, Welcoming Place to Be
Need a quiet place to study, read, or simply take a break? The library is a free, calm, and inclusive space open to everyone.

Fun and Learning for Kids
