About Woollahra Municipal Library - Housebound Services

The Library offers a regular fortnightly or monthly service to housebound members of the library. Initial contact is usually by referral by medical professionals or by word of mouth. Many housebound members are former library patrons who are no longer able to visit the library in person due to the onset of old age or disabilities. A library staff member will interview the housebound member to ascertain their needs and arrangements are made for regular visits. Delivery of books are also made to Nursing Homes and Aged Care accommodation.
