The Mansfield Library has undergone extensive renovations over several months, reopening on Tuesday 16 May 2023 with extended opening hours.
Mayor Cr James Tehan said visits to the Library had doubled in the first month since reopening.
“The Library was already a well-loved space and the refurbishment has allowed us to meet the needs and expectations of our community,” said Cr Tehan.
“The new space is fun and engaging for young people, enhances how the community accesses the library and makes the operating of the library more efficient.
“It will be great to see families come to enjoy the opening this school holidays.”
