Longreach Library to close until further notice

Longreach Regional Council has taken the additional step of closing its libraries until further notice, effective Tuesday 24 March, in response to COVID-19.

Council will relax rules around borrowing limits and return periods ahead of the libraries shutting their doors at the close of business on Monday. The move comes after Council had already canceled community meetings at the Longreach facility earlier in the week. 

Council is encouraging anyone who wants to stay informed about the pandemic to make use of official sites such as qld.gov.au/health/conditions/health-alerts/coronavirus-covid-19 and health.gov.au.
