Library Closures

Christmas & New Year Closures 

All City of Ryde Libraries will be closed from 12 noon on Tuesday 24 December 2024 reopening from 9.30am to 5.00pm on Thursday 2 January 2025. Normal operating hours resume for all branches (except Gladesville) from Friday 3 January 2025. After-hours return chutes and online library will be available during this time. 

Quiet Hours

City of Ryde Libraries is committed to providing a range of accessibility needs. From December we will be implementing Quiet Hour sessions. During Quiet Hour, our branches will aim to create a low sensory environment by having dimmed lighting, minimal noise and low-level conversations (where possible). Visit our library during these times for a calm library experience.
