Snowy Monaro Regional Library’s transition to a new operating model for the Mobile Library is almost complete, with the service now known as the Library Outreach Service relaunching in early December 2024.

Replacing the truck-based Mobile Library, this new operating model provides a monthly pre-booked pick-up and drop-off library service to residents in the Adaminaby, Berridale, Bredbo, Dalgety, Delegate, Michelago and Nimmitabel areas.

How the Library Outreach Service works

  • Monthly timetable of in-person collection and drop-off points in Adaminaby, Berridale, Bredbo, Dalgety, Delegate, Michelago and Nimmitabel
  • Pre-order library items by phone, email, or reserve items online
  • Collect and return orders at one of the collection points across the region
