Coronavirus update on Council services and facilities
Bayside City Council 26 Mar 2020

Return chutes will reopen from 1 June – you are welcome to return your books if you are finished with them.

We currently have over 50,000 books in the community. The book chutes will be open at Beaumaris, Hampton and Brighton between 8am and 6pm Monday - Friday for the immediate future to cater to the volume of books we expect to be returned.

From 1 June, we will begin processing the nearly 10,000 book reservations we have pending. Online and telephone reservations will reopen from 15 June.

With 50,000 books currently on loan and nearly 10,000 reservations already in our system, one of our key aims is to recommence book circulation in a safe and hygienic way. We need our books back before they can be borrowed again!

You can still access a vast array of online library services currently available to Bayside Library Service members right now.
