The day was sunny. After a hectic month, calm descended on the staff of Cronulla Library. All was ready for the opening of the bright new library.Eager customers waited outside for the doors to open.
Then.....the race was on.
HSC students led the way and quickly occupied most of the tables. Children made a beeline for the children's area. Newspapers were snapped up. Others wandered around taking in the colour and looking for their favourite authors.
Bookatoo was pursuaded to make a guest appearance much to the delight of the children - young and a little older.
Didn't get there for the opening? See photos of the opening on flickr
We look forward to you visiting Cronulla Library.
The library is in Cronulla Central.
Enter from Cronulla Plaza, Croydon Street or via the lifts from the Croydon Street Carpark.

Here's some comments from our staff on the ground at Cronulla Library...
'Wow the first two days have been NUTS!!!!!
We had something like 55 people join up in the first day.
We just conducted the first Tuesday storytime and we had almost 40 kids! Chaos!
All has been going fairly smoothly, the air conditioning has been the biggest issue.
Generally everyone is so overwhelmed by the size, not everyone likes the red and the kids have been playing with the napkin rings - we had a huge caterpillar at one stage.
The Playstations have been going down well especially with the HSC students as you can imagine. However they continue to overheat so we need more vents put in place.'
It seems there's a bit of interest in the Shire's newest library. Have you visited yet? Let us know what you think.
Martin, Library Staff.
