We're one step closer to delivering a brand new library in Rosanna

21 September 2021

We’re one step closer to delivering a brand new library, double the size of the existing one, in the heart of Rosanna by 2024.

Through a partnership with Woolworths, the new Rosanna Library will include an expansive children’s area, as well as co-working and study spaces, community meeting rooms, reading areas, quiet spaces and more.

While some people expressed concerns about a partnership approach and the sale of public land during our community consultation in April and May 2021; overall, we received strong and positive community support for expanding and upgrading the library.

At the Council meeting on 20 September 2021, Council resolved to proceed with the sale of 828sqm of land to Woolworths.

What’s next?

We’re now at the exciting stage of finalising concept designs incorporating community feedback. You can continue to have your say on the project through the statutory planning process, expected early in 2022.
