Book Sales
All programming and events have been cancelled until further notice due to the Coronavirus situation. Please see our home page for further updates.
Book sales are held by the Friends of Altona Libraries and the Friends of Williamstown and Newport Libraries on a regular basis, with funds raised for resources and equipment needed to keep Hobsons Bay Libraries running smoothly.
Book sales contain second hand books donated by the community, as well as library stock taken out of circulation, and donations are always welcomed.
Friends of Altona Libraries book sales are held at the rear of the Altona Library.
The Friends of Williamstown and Newport Libraries book sales are held in The Book Room - Friends of the Library and Community Meeting Space at Williamstown Library.
