Campbelltown Public Library

I received the email letting me know the books I ordered on-​line had come in. The same service happens when a book is overdue if you register your email against your account.
Today was quiet so I was lucky to grab my books and exit quickly. I do wish the hold section was closer to the service desk when I don’t want to use any other facilities within the library. When its busy the line up is crazy. Typical me forgot to bring my library card and it wasn’t an issue as I was able to provide my drivers licence and was found in their system.
The services available ranges from the obvious books to DVDs, Blu-​rays, CDs, e-​books, magazines, newspapers, audio books, scanning, printing and much more.
I don’t borrow the DVDs anymore as they seem to be bad quality with the numerous scratches, and I’ve had trouble playing then at home. Probably caused by over use.
There is a Justice of the Peace Service and you just need to check with the library the availability. The times for this service are on the office door.

The Campbelltown library is one of the best I’ve been to in South Australia, and I’m lucky enough to call it my local. As a member of the SWAP Library Network you also have access to a huge pool of resources from multiple libraries around town, all of which can be accessed at the library itself, or over the internet with an easy login based around your membership card. There are stacks of DVD’s and CD’s, as well as, well yes, obviously, books. Placing reservations over the net is a breeze, and you’ll get notification when your requests are in and ready to collect.
As well as the pictured public access computer section, the Campbelltown library features an Ipad available for public use, and a great childrens toy library too. The childrens range of books and multimedia resources is huge compared to other places I’ve frequented.
Staff always seem to be friendly, and are far more likely to give a gentle reminder that a book is overdue than to slap you with a fine — even extending a deadline to allow you time to get the offending item back to them.
Membership is free — stacks of off street parking here, too. Great community resource.
