Libraries have changed from the dull old buildings of yesteryear, where people had to sit in the quiet while reading, and now offer a bright and friendly venue suitable for all age groups.

Throughout the year you can discover a range of amazing information sessions, book club groups, craft activities, children’s holiday activities, baby storytime and rhyme time sessions – and lots of other activities suitable for toddlers, young children, teens and adults.

City of Armadale Mayor Henry Zelones OAM JP said for those experiencing mobility difficulties, the City in conjunction with Armadale Home Help can even help assist residents to visit the library to select their material.

These visits are held alternate Wednesday mornings at Seville Grove Library, with a small fee of $5 per visit charged for transport. To book your seat on the bus, contact Home Help Local on 9399 1111.

“There’s always a friendly face at the City’s libraries, and staff that are happy to assist you with any queries that you may have.

“So if you haven’t been to a library in a while, visit one of the City’s three libraries soon, and relax in air conditioned comfort to read a collection of magazines, borrow an audio book, or download eBooks for your e-reader or tablet.

“You will never feel lonely surrounded by books, not to mention all the free workshops, events and activities that your library card gives you access to,” said Mayor Henry Zelones.

For further information contact Armadale Library on 9399 0125, Kelmscott Library on 9399 0810 or Seville Grove Library on 9399 0800.
