Blaxland Library Display
Notes: The new corner displays were part of the recent refurbishment.
Blaxland was the first new branch to be opened by the newly appointed Chief Librarian, Mrs Gay Baker, in 1975. The township had not formerly had a library, so the new branch was housed in a fibro cottage behind the shopping area. It consisted of a small reference section, adult fiction, large print and non-fiction collections and a separate junior room. The present branch library was opened in the new Community Centre built in 1977.
