Library System Upgrade And Temporary Outage

Boroondara Library Service will be undertaking a scheduled system upgrade on Tuesday 20 October 2026, between 8 am and 3 pm.

This upgrade will help our systems run more efficiently and strengthen our authentication processes, ensuring we continue to provide secure and up-to-date services to our community.

  • access the library catalogue or app
  • reserve or renew items
  • access online resources, including newspapers and LinkedIn Learning
  • make payments in person or online

You’ll still be able to:

  • borrow items in person
  • access WiFi
  • join the library in person
