Southbank Library at Boyd

  • Heritage listed
  • Learning

Southbank Library is set within the heritage-listed former JH Boyd Girls' High School, which is now home to Boyd Community Hub, featuring artist studios, a cafe and maternal and child health services.

The library has a reader-friendly layout, similar to a bookshop, making it easy for borrowers to find their next great read. Unlike a traditional library, the non-fiction section is arranged by subject, with books clustered into popular topics such as home and lifestyle, food and drink, art and culture, and travel.
