It's just really magical when you're travelling and you find incredible people along the road. The library in Forster is outstanding, a lot of aboriginal culture display beautiful and a very welcoming vibe. Special shout out to Jenny who made a great effort helping me to find old surf mag publications for my personal project. The World is brighter because of you, Jenny. Thank you.

Unfortunately an example of new is not best. Not user friendly for elderly with mobility issues as the old one was. Which is surprising for an area with a high senior population. The building is stark, grey, uninviting, out of the way. In fact it is so bad that I do not think that I will be back. Amazon kindle is looking better sadly.

This is a great library service much loved by the town of Forster. The staff are great and there is often a line up to be a volunteer here. There are physical and eBooks of all sorts and library loans are available. Genealogy is a speciality. There is a book club that actually meets at the library as well as the Knot and Natter group and others. There are children's activities. The premises are light and bright and convenient to the local shopping centre. It has good disability access and facilities.
