Help shape the future of Sunshine Coast Libraries
From movies and magazines, to events, kids’ activities and lifelong learning – these days, libraries really are more than just books.
Our libraries are places to relax, to learn a new skill, attend a workshop, create a podcast or do some study. Whether you’re two or 92 years old, our libraries have something for all ages.
Libraries have evolved a lot in the last 10 years, and now Sunshine Coast Council wants to hear from you about how you use our libraries, what services you use and what is important to you in the future.
Council is preparing the Sunshine Coast Library Services Plan 2025-2035—a new 10-year strategic plan that will guide our library service and ensure it continues to grow and evolve with our community and the world around us.
Strong Community Portfolio Councillor Taylor Bunnag said libraries were at the heart of our community.
“Our libraries are places for everyone - providing access to resources, programs and spaces that inspire learning, creativity and connection,” Cr Bunnag said.
“Council operates eight library branches across the region, plus a heritage library, two mobile libraries and eLibrary. Soon, we will also open the doors to the newly transformed Caloundra Library known as, Library+ Caloundra.
“We also have a team of specialists who design and implement a variety of library programs and services—ranging from our heritage library to initiatives focused on young people, literacy programs and information technology.
“We want to continue offering our residents the services they love and evolve our services along with our growing community.
“I encourage everyone to share their ideas for the future of our library services.”
