The agreement with Lane Cove will enable Hunter’s Hill Council to provide new library programs and activities for people of all ages, such as rhyme time, school holiday activities, author talks and arts and crafts, within the Hunters Hill local government area.

For the first time since 1861 – the first time ever – Hunter’s Hill Council will also be establishing a stand-alone library and community space at 64 Gladesville Rd Hunters Hill, opening around October 2020.

Residents can still utilise the City of Ryde library services. 

The closest library for residents living in the Hunters Hill local government area is the Gladesville Branch Library, which is located at 8 Pittwater Road, Gladesville.

Hunter’s Hill Council adopted the Library Act 1939 on 14 March 1955 and commenced providing a library service on 2 January 1957 through a joint library agreement with City of Ryde Council.

The agreement with the City of Ryde ended on June 30, 2020, but Hunters Hill residents who are members of the Ryde library services and currently use the Gladesville branch will still be able to do so.

To celebrate the new agreement with Lane Cove Council and encourage our residents to sign up for brand new library cards, Council ran a promotion in the month of June. The first 100 members receive a limited edition library bag and voucher for a local business, and one lucky member won an iPad!
