Trove Partners, the facilitator of interlibrary loan services across Australian libraries, is transitioning to a new system. As a result, Glen Eira’s interlibrary loan service will be temporarily paused from 28 April 2025.
It is anticipated the service will resume 30 June 2025. We appreciate your understanding and patience during this transition.
Whatever you're researching, here you can find useful links to information on nearly any topic. They're great help for study and school assignments too.
