It’s not every day you might see The Pop-Up Library Van in Wyndham, but four days a week is a pretty sure bet.
The van visits a range of sites and locations across Wyndham and addresses service gaps in the community.
Complimenting council’s other library branches – the ones that can’t move – it delivers free programs and services including the popular ‘Baby Time’ and ‘Rhyme Time’ sessions for residents younger than three.
The agile auto also has high speed WiFi, and of course, a small collection of books to browse and borrow.
For the remainder of term two, the wheeled wonder will be at Koomail Tardy Community Centre on Mondays, Lollypop Creek Community Centre on Tuesdays, Dianella Community Centre on Wednesdays and Arndell Park Community Centre on Thursdays.
From 10.30-11am of each session will be for young children’s activities, but the van will open up for library membership, sign-ups and borrowing until 11.30am.
While the learning machine is designed to improve library access to new and developing areas, it makes sure to stop by communities that are firmly established.
The Pop-Up Library van visits Little River Mechanics Institute Hall for a monthly craft and conversation program on the first Thursday of the month from 2.30pm to 4pm.
The Pop-Up Library Van is rostered to visit different locations, four days a week during business hours with two staff members on board; the hours and locations change each term.
