In September last year, we opened the doors of the new Gosford Regional Library. Now six months later, we can’t imagine life without this favourite place in our community.
Since opening, around 70,000 items have been loaned and 2,110 new members have signed up. Almost 5,000 people have attended an event and we’ve enjoyed author talks from Costa Georgiadis, Judy Nunn and Peter FitzSimons.
On Tuesday 24 March, we’ll be holding our Council meeting in the auditorium — another first for the new library. You’re welcome to attend as part of the public gallery.
Our library’s location in the heart of Gosford City forms part of an education and innovation cluster with TAFE, the University of Newcastle’s Central Coast campus and the Clinical School at Gosford Hospital.
This aligns with the NSW Government’s vision in the Central Coast Regional Plan 2041 to create and support the growth of an education and employment precinct in Gosford.
