We have new dates and opening hours on Saturdays. Our open Saturdays in 2024 will generally be the 2nd Saturday of the month except for March and June when it will be the 3rd Saturday to avoid clashes with long weekends. The open Saturdays are all listed on the Events part of our website. The upcoming open Saturday dates are 10th February, 16th March and 13th April.
We will be open from 10am to 3pm on these dates but you do need to book by noon the day before. Bookings can be made via phone at +61 3 9662 4455 (Monday to Friday, 9:30 am to 4:00 pm) or via email at gsv@gsv.org.au
Saturdays are a good time to visit the GSV Library. Why you might be thinking? Well, on our open Saturdays we usually have 2 or 3 experienced Library Assistants to help you and others who have booked to come in. So it provides a quieter environment for your research than on weekdays.
If you want to drive into the city there is cheap parking at the covered car park in Bond Street directly opposite the GSV. Or if you want to come in by train it is much easier to get car parking near your local station or at an intermediate station.
Our dedicated Saturday Library Research Assistants look forward to meeting and helping you soon.
