Is life in the Eastern Subbsies getting you down? The constant pressure to look good and feel great becoming more than you can bare? Maybe you’re just sick of floppy felt hats and high-​waisted jorts.
Fret not, friend, for there is an oasis of calm within reach. Perched above secluded Redleaf beach (AKA Murray Rose Pool) like a wise and paternal owl is DB Library, a small, charming, and utterly delightful little place in an old heritage/​style building with views over the gardens and the ocean, fast, free wi-​fi, books and magazines, open, light-​splashed group work areas, and nooks to hide yourself in.
Frequented by everyone from octeganarians familiarising themselves with the internet to students working on uni projects to yummy mummies planning out their next blog post. My finest find this month.

Beautiful view of the public garden, bay, and tennis court. Plenty of lighting with floor-​to-​ceiling windows at the end of the library with adjustable curtains for when the sun is shining a little too directly into the library. Rather limited seating, as this place is surprisingly popular. Only two worktables and another small table with 4 public computers with internet for public use. Unprotected, free WiFi available. I also appreciate how they maintain a warm, comfortable temperature inside (especially during winter!).
While there are decorative and inviting cushions scattered throughout the small library, there are no real comfy lounge chairs to enjoy a book. Best to come here to grab a book and do work, but not really to lounge.
There is a separate children’s library downstairs as well. Nice way to keep working/​studying adults & children apart.
