Central Library closure

Matihiko/Tech Support Librarian from Hamilton Central Library Te Koopuu Maania o Kirikiriroa

Central Library will be closed for one week from this Saturday (5 March) due to staff shortages. We will review this after one week.
We’re as disappointed as you are, but isolation requirements mean we simply do not have enough people to keep all six libraries running safely.
On a happier note - Chartwell, St Andrews, Dinsdale, Hillcrest and Glenview Libraries will remain open. You’ll also still be able to return books to the Central Library while it’s closed through the return chute.

Thanks for bearing with us, we hope this won’t last long!
