Visiting a Lake Mac Library

There are libraries all over Lake Macquarie offering a range of services. Each one is unique and offers something different.

Sugar Valley Library Museum in Cameron Park is a new concept in design and what it offers visitors. You’ll enjoy a library, museum, kids area, and virtual space. The new Windale Hub offers a fresh look and feel that reinvents the library as a  learn, create, and innovate space.

Learn, research and explore 

There is so much more to a library than borrowing a book. Did you know that Lake Mac Libraries has public databases? Delve into your family history, learn about Lake Mac’s social history and collections, or access and explore the vast research data base.
