The Mobile Library visits retirement villages, nursing homes and remote locations on a fortnightly basis throughout Canberra. Any member of the ACT Public Library may use the Mobile Library at any stop and new members are welcome to join on the Mobile. The mobile library has Books in standard print, Books in large print, Books on audio cassette and CD, Captioned and standard videos, Compact discs and DVDs, Internet and much more.

  Collecting requests from the Mobile Library.

All library members who borrow on the Mobile Library are allocated a stop number so that we know where they will pick up requested items. Due to the number of sites visited over a two week cycle, when the Mobile goes out it can only carry requests allocated to be picked up at the stop visited on that particular day.
If you would like to pick up a request from a different stop, please contact the Mobile Library two days in advance to make sure your request is available.
You can contact the library by phoning 6205 9000.
