Old Bar Community Library will undergo a major refurbishment with the upgrade set to provide residents with a more modern, accessible and secure community hub.
The works will include new flooring, upgraded furniture, technology improvements, and enhanced security and access features designed to improve the experience for library users.
The project will be delivered progressively from late May to late August 2026. While the library will remain open where possible, temporary closures will be required at various stages to allow works to be completed safely.
The first closure will occur on Thursday, 28 May, while flooring replacement works are carried out. Further closure dates will be announced as the refurbishment progresses.
Residents are encouraged to stay informed by checking the MidCoast Council Libraries website and social media channels for updates on temporary closures and project milestones: https://library.midcoast.nsw.gov.au.
