Discover the delights of Riverton Library

Gone are the days when libraries only loaned out books. These days public libraries are like an Aladdin’s cave, filled with a treasure trove of goodies; and the best news is, most of it is free. 

eLibrary - Enjoy new library services without setting foot inside

If you haven't been to the library for a while, you can now access a huge amount of content online just by downloading an app and using your library card number. You can borrow eBooks, eMagazines, and audio books, join an online book club, and have access to a large collection of indie films, classic cinema, popular movies and documentaries. There is also range of online resources for children including online story time and Kanopy Kids, which offers content that helps children develop empathy, mindfulness, and self-esteem through entertaining and educational videos.

Computers, WiFi and printing

Computers for public use are available at all Canning Libraries and are free to use with your library membership. You can log in to a computer using your library membership number, or ask a member of staff for a guest pass.  Free WiFi is available at all Canning Libraries. If you need help connecting, please ask a member of staff. Low cost printing services are also available.
