We use Chatswood Library.

Artarmon is most convenient, but it is a small library so we often go to Lane Cove or Chatswood. Both Lane Cove and Chatswood are under renovation, so we have been using the North Sydney library this year.

We use Naremburn Library. It is unlikely that I would go to any of the other branches as the Naremburn branch is close by and I prefer to walk or catch public transport, rather than use my car, and none of the other branch locations are accessible from Naremburn by easy public transport. Although Naremburn is on two direct bus routes to Chatswood, I rarely went to the former Chatswood Library before it was demolished and I have been to the temporary library twice. I prefer to use our Naremburn Branch and request items from elsewhere in the system to be available for pick up at Naremburn. In this regard I think that $2 per item is a hefty price for a pensioner to pay.

i use naremburn, artarmon and chatswood. Artarmon is most convenient and it would be better if it was bigger.

I am excited about the new Northbridge library and would love to use it for our climate group meetings. i hope it is "green" with passive heating and cooling.

I use both Chatswood and Northbridge libraries - depending on what I am looking for. Northbridge for light reading, Chatswood for reference material - particularly for ESL support. Chatswood has I believe an excellent set of ESL resources.
