Welcome to the Whakatane District Council

Whakatane District Libraries

This is a public library responsible to and funded by Whakatane District Council.  One library card entitles a registered user to borrow from any of our four community libraries.  Anyone may use the library and casual readers are welcome to spend time in the libraries reading, studying or checking on local events and national news.

The link to our catalogue has changed!

If you have bookmarked the catalogue search screen you will have to click on the link below and update your bookmark.

The catalogue will look different but we hope it will be easier for you to use.  The tabs that you were familiar with will now appear as tabs at the top of the screen.

If you need help logging into My Account, please phone us on 306-0509 during work hours.
