Woollahra Library at Double Bay

Double Bay’s landmark library and community hub has been cleverly designed over three levels. From quiet study nooks, to interactive kid zones and buzzing event spaces, the new Library which opened on May 28 2016 combines the latest technology with a range of exciting new programs and services.

Woollahra Library at Double Bay

This library isn’t just about books – there’s a Secret Garden, dedicated arts and crafts area, interactive floor projection games and even a slippery dip! This three storey next-generation space was designed to expand those little imaginations and the children’s area on level 1 was built for fun (the quiet zones are waay up on level 3!).
