This long and low (single-storey, tho the southern end has a slight 'split-level aspect) yellow-brick building was built the year I was born. A sign on the Visitot Information Centre, and Bottle Museum was asking for historic photos of previous libraries, as it is believed that there had been an earlier Library presence, even going back as far as 1869, and they are planning on having a 150th year celebration in 2019! With the wide Vennacher Street there is sufficient on-street parking. [Tho I was there before opening hours - while on my way to Lightning Ridge.]
