Geelong Regional Library Corporation Information

The Geelong Regional Library Corporation (GRLC) is a recognised industry leader in Victoria. Leading the way to help our community thrive, we live our mission to be ‘an exemplary library service’ and ‘create opportunities for our community to read, learn, work and connect with each other and the world’. Our wonderful staff group provides high quality library and information services to residents and visitors across four member council areas: Borough of Queenscliffe, City of Greater Geelong, Golden Plains Shire and Surf Coast Shire. We take seriously our role as custodians and distributors of accumulated knowledge and resources, and strive to ensure that our services, programs and collections are accessible to everyone. Our libraries are safe and welcoming spaces. We are committed to taking a digitally-progressive and innovative approach to work, and are focussed on continuous improvement. In addition to our vast physical and digital Collection, the GRLC also delivers a rich calendar of learning, literacy and cultural programs. These programs are delivered across our network which comprises our flagship branch, the Geelong Library & Heritage Centre, 16 community branches and two mobiles libraries. Our network spans four council areas and covers around 5,500 square kilometres. We are proud of our important responsibilities and strong established relationships based on respect, care and kindness.
