Mackay Regional Council Libraries wants to know ‘How do you Library?’
Do you come for the games and workshops, movies and music, yarns and books, technology and WiFi, arts and culture, or just the pleasant air-conditioning and a wonderful sense of belonging?
Mayor Greg Williamson said council’s Libraries team was excited to partner with the State Library of Queensland this March to promote our libraries and everything they have to offer.
“As part of the ‘How do you Library?’ campaign, we invite the Mackay community to become a library member, renew your membership or use your current membership to enter the draw to win some fantastic prizes, thanks to the State Library of Queensland and the MECC,” Mayor Williamson said.
“Whether you’re a first-time user or a lifetime member, you’re more than welcome to join the fun,” he said.
“The first 100 responses will receive a ‘How Do You Library?’ promotional pack, including a library bag, sticker, badge and bookmark.
“Visit your local library or Parker the Library Van during the month of March to enter.”
Mayor Williamson said our libraries were modern and technologically advanced facilities that offered services for all ages and abilities.
“They are so much more than books, although they do have an amazing collection.
“Residents can access social groups, children’s activities, a creative studio for recording and editing projects, as well as computers, WiFi and print services.”
You can find Parker the Library Van out and about challenging library stereotypes and showcasing all the services libraries provide at the Cuppa with a Neighbour events, which are being held in March. Come along for a cuppa and a friendly chat at these locations:
