Toukley library is closed until May 22 for essential repairs, including replacement of the 40-year-old roof.
While the library is closed, all lighting will be upgraded to LED lights to reduce energy consumption and provide long-term cost savings.
Out-of-hours return chutes and public amenities will also be closed.
Central Coast Council’s online e-library is available and the closest library branch is at Lake Haven.
“Toukley library is used by library members and local community groups for recreational, educational, social and cultural activities and Council believes it is essential to continue to provide a safe and welcoming space for the community to access,” a Council spokesperson said.
Both the roof repairs and LED lighting upgrade are budgeted for in Central Coast Council’s Planned Maintenance Budget.
