Hamilton libraries - closed Tuesday and Wednesday

The Team from Hamilton City Council

Our libraries will be closed for the next two days for a major systems upgrade.

Kotui is our new libraries management system and its roll-out is a significant project for us. The closure is the best way for us to undertake a major transferral of data. The work can’t be undertaken while the libraries are open for business.

Testing of the system will also be included in the closure to ensure it’s performing properly when we reopen the doors for customers on 15 June.

We appreciate the closure may inconvenience customers, but the upgrade is essential and the closure represents a tiny percentage of the annual opening hours for the libraries.

The introduction of Kotui won’t change what customers pay for loan items, but the new system will modernise staff and customer access to information on the library’s catalogue. When you look online for items from our collection, our customers will see more information available and have a better user experience.

A mobile phone app for customers will also be rolled out as part of the project.

Customers needing to return items that are due on the two closure dates in June can do so by using the after-hours boxes at the suburban libraries. See hamiltonlibraries.co.nz for more details
