Libraries: What's on in Brisbane

Libraries to expand person limits and services

All 33 Council libraries will allow up to 20 people inside a library.

To observe the limit of 20 people at any one time and minimise waiting time, customers are only able to:

access and browse the library collections – customers will be asked to sanitise their hands before handling any collection items on the shelves
limited internet access with 15-minute express sessions. Printing and mobile printing services are available
return borrowed items through after-hours returns chutes
pick-up holds when ready for collection – no hold fees apply.

The number of people permitted within individual libraries at any one time will be contingent on:

floor size
configuration of different spaces
distances between shelving, joinery, furniture, computers and service areas
paths of travel within each library.

Brisbane Libraries run a range of classes, workshops, activities and events. For all Council events, visit What's On in Brisbane.
