Footscray Library will be temporarily closed from 13–26 June while we carry out minor refurbishments to improve the space for our community.

During this time, the return chute will be closed, and all Footscray Library loans will be extended by two weeks. All other library branches will remain open as usual for our community to borrow and return items, use computers and attend programs and events.

We appreciate your understanding while we make these updates and look forward to welcoming you back to Footscray Library after the closure.
