After an enormously successful 6 months the Manly Library 24/7 Community Trial will pause from 28 November. 
More than 1,300 library members have joined the trial so far and there have been more than 19,000 visits to the library outside of staffed hours since June.

We’re delighted in the overwhelmingly positive response to the service and deeply appreciate the considerate use of the library space by our community. 

From Friday 28 November Manly Library can be visited during regular staffed hours only while we review all collected data and community feedback. Watch this space for news on the service in early 2026!
