New City Library coming soon

Adelaide City Council is developing a bigger and better City Library at Rundle Place, in the heart of Rundle Mall. Due to open at the end of 2013, the City Library will be a multipurpose space where people will meet, learn, create and debate.

The new City Library will fulfil the community’s vision, now and into the future. It will still be a place for books and information, but also provide more space for people to connect to each other, to our city, and to ideas that will shape our future.
