Summer Hours 2026

The Kyneton Library will be closed from Monday February 9 to Thursday 12 February (inclusive) while we install new carpet. We look forward to welcoming you back to a refreshed space when we reopen on Friday 13 February.

Please note:

  • The returns chute will be closed during this time.
  • All due dates have been extended—no need to worry about returns.
  • If you need assistance, please contact any of our other libraries, and our team will be happy to help.

Thank you for your understanding while we give the library a little makeover!
