Home Library Service

Casey-Cardinia Library Corporation provides free monthly deliveries of library materials to members of the community who have difficulty getting to their local public library.

Our Home Library Service Coordinator works with a group of volunteers. We have arranged the service so that the same volunteers deliver to the same people each time. This way they get to know them and can offer a friendly, personalised service.

Are you eligible?

The Home Library Service can be provided to:

• Any person living in the municipalities of Casey or Cardinia, who is temporarily or permanently housebound, due to age, illness, injury or disablement and has no reasonable alternative to home delivery of library materials.
• Nursing homes, hospitals and other institutions.

Something to suit everybody!

Every effort is made to match library materials to people. We can provide a wide range of books in large print, ordinary print or talking books for those whose eyesight might be failing. We also have a impressive selection of Australian and overseas magazines.

Requests for particular items are welcome.

Find out more.

If you would like more information about our Home Library Service, please contact the Home Library Service Coordinator at Pakenham library, or fill out and submit this enquiry form.

If you would like to receive our home library service, a Library staff member will arrange to visit you and discuss your eligibility, reading interests and the level of service you need.

Casey-Cardinia Library Corporation will ensure that the confidentiality of people receiving Home Library Service is maintained at all times.

Become a volunteer!

The Home Library Service could not operate without the goodwill of the many community-spirited volunteers who generously give their time each month, to choose books and other materials from our libraries and deliver them to our housebound library members. We don't overburden our volunteers with too many people to visit or inconvenience them by having to deliver outside their local area, so we are always looking for new volunteers to share the load.  If you or a friend would like to become a Home Library Service volunteer, please fill in and submit this volunteers form.

For more information, contact the Home Library Service coordinator via email or at Pakenham Library.
