Closing the Library and Youth Hub temporarily will allow contractors to access the site and complete the required works as quickly, safely and efficiently as possible.

We recognise that closures can be disruptive and we appreciate your understanding. Our teams are working closely with contractors to progress the works and minimise disruption wherever possible.

We will continue to keep you informed as the works progress and will provide further updates, including the reopening date, as soon as it is confirmed.

Our other three library locations remain open as usual. 

·       Carnegie Library
7 Shepparson Avenue, Carnegie

·       Caulfield Library
Corner Glen Eira and Hawthorn Roads, Caulfield

·       Elsternwick Library
4 Staniland Grove, Elsternwick

Bentleigh Library’s return chute will be closed during this period, so please keep your loans with you until the library reopens or return them to another library branch.

If you have been notified that you have a reserved item to collect at Bentleigh Library and you would like to have it transferred to another branch, please contact us at 9524 3700 or gelis@gleneira.vic.gov.au.
