Campbelltown Public Library

Need to see a Justice of the Peace (JP)? ✍️

We have a roster of friendly JP's most days of the week. This is a free service with no bookings required, however we recommend calling the library on 8366 9299 or refer to the roster on our website, before you come as times are subject to change.

To make the process as smooth as possible make sure to bring any appropriate identification, so that the JP can confirm your identity, as well as any original documents if needing certifying.

Filling out paperwork beforehand will ensure you are able to speed up the process, noting you will need to wait to sign any forms until you are in front of the JP.

A photocopying service is available for a fee.

🖤💛❤️ National Reconciliation Week (NRW) is a time for all Australians to learn about our shared histories, cultures, and achievements, and to explore how each of us can contribute to achieving reconciliation in Australia.

This year’s theme, All In, calls on everyone to actively contribute to reconciliation — not only during National Reconciliation Week, but every day.

Visit the library this National Reconciliation Week to discover our curated First Nations collection and be inspired by stories that spark reflection and meaningful conversations. 📚

Books by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander authors offer an opportunity to listen, learn and engage with the voices, cultures and histories that continue to shape our nation.
