Monica leads a special storytime at Middle Park Library for a ministerial visit announcing new grants for libraries.

Middle Park Library will be even more inviting for our younger residents under an exciting activation project announced this month.

Victorian Local Government Minister Melissa Horne attended a special storytime at Middle Park Library to unveil the latest Living Libraries Infrastructure Program (LLIP) recipients.

Our Council will provide $200,000 to complement the Victorian Government’s $200,000 LLIP grant for the Middle Park Library. The $400,000 will be used for the library space to be redesigned in collaboration with our community, with a focus on ensuring it meets the needs of young people during the day.

The redesign will also create more opportunities for events including primary school visits, book club meetings, author talks and after-school spaces.

Stayed tuned for details about this collaborative opportunity.
