We’re refreshing the Library Action Plan to make sure our libraries continue to meet the needs of our community.
We know that libraries across Port Phillip are well loved and well used, playing an important role in the cultural and social character of our City.
The draft Library Action Plan 2027-31 guides how our five branches support the community as welcoming hubs for learning, creativity and connection:
- Albert Park Library
- Emerald Hill Library and Heritage Centre
- Middle Park Library
- Port Melbourne Library
- St Kilda Library.
Your feedback will help refine the refreshed plan, ensuring our libraries respond to current and future community needs.
Have your say on the services our libraries currently provide by 11.59pm Sunday 13 September 2026.
