Hub Library

Great library with heaps of seminars where you can learn new skills. I have seen it changed numerous times and these days it incorporates a small front desk that has taken the place of the old council chambers. You can ask questions about local going ons and pay council rates.
One of the sad aspects of this library was the passing of the resident python, Solomon. He lived at this location for a good 25 years. He was always the first stop as a kid and occasionally he would be let out on arranged dates for some exercise and a treat for the locals.
Good range of books but if you’re looking for peaceful times to go in choose non-​school hours as it also doubles as the local high school resource which is attached to the north of the library.

I’ve thoroughly enjoyed using this library. It’s a fun place for children to learn and be engaged in the world of books. They also have a great toy library for children. Whenever I’ve needed to use computers, photocopiers or needed help tracking down a book or five, the staff have been very helpful and accommodating.
It feels like their range is greater than the Woodcroft Library, but the great thing about the Onkaparinga Libraries is that you can search and request books online. If the book I want is in Noarlunga for instance, I can request it to my nearest branch, saving me time and petrol.
The library is always busy! The car park probably isn’t as big as it would ideally be, but the car park for the Hub shops is just a short walk away. There’s a flight of stairs to travel down and now that I think of it, I didn’t see a ramp anywhere. There would have to be an entrance somewhere for those people who can’t make it up and down stairs but my detective skills have let me down this time… sorry!
They have a great range of children’s activities ranging from story times for various ages as well as movie nights from time to time.
