Upper Murray Regional Library

Well this is it from us. Tomorrow is officially the last day of Upper Murray Regional Library. Operating since the 1st July 1950 we will finally close our doors.
The branches will go on as new entities and we wish them all the best in their new and exciting futures.

Thank you from the staff of UMRL

The Mobile Library Schedule which will be provided by Riverina Library Service has now been finalised.

Ebooks are now available through Bolinda Digital downloads. You can download either directly from the website or through their Borrowbox app which is available through iTunes or Google Play

"My therapist told me the way to achieve true inner peace is to finish what I start. So far today, I have finished two bags of M & M's and a chocolate cake. I feel better already."

Returning your Library Books
There will be a transition of services due to Upper Murray Regional Library ceasing operations as of the end of June. Corowa, Mulwala, Holbrook and Tumbarumba will be joining Riverina Regional Library. Beechworth, Chiltern, Rutherglen, Tallangatta, Corryong and Wodonga will all be joining the Swift Consortium.

To assist us in this process please ensure you return your books to the branch that you have borrowed them from.
