Bookbus - Blueskin Bay - Dunedin City - Mosgiel - Port Chalmers - Waikouaiti

Bookbus

Our Bookbus service is your library on wheels. We have two buses. PT is painted with a town scene; PQ has a penguin scene.

We visit 51 stops each week from Mosgiel to Portobello. We carry fiction, non-fiction and reference books for children and adults, large print, talking books, and magazines.

We can bring out (at your request) CDs, videos, DVDs or cassettes. You can reserve books via the online catalogue and pick them up from a Bookbus. We accept returns for any of our other libraries.

Have you tried our online maps to find your nearest Bookbus stop? We also have our bus timetables available by day or by stop.

Remember - all of our Bookbuses are connected to our online services and offer searching of our online catalogue, access to your records, placing holds and payment of fines.
