Photo opportunity! This library is housed in one of Melbourne's most photogenic heritage buildings. It is worth taking the lift up to level 4 then walking up to levels 5-6 to snap 'the dome'. Tristan the volunteer guide on level 4 was super helpful in giving advice as to where good photos can be taken.
Study opportunity! There are plenty of desks for people to read and study. There are over 2 million items in the library collection, with roughly 20 percent available on site (there is roughly a 24 hour turn around for off site items). Note, this is not a borrowing library; all books must remain in the building. Overall, it is a great place for a casual visit or study - well worth visiting for either.
