Library book stork delivery service

The Library Book Stork Delivery Service is a pilot service. The aim is to support parents during the first 12 months at home with a new baby by providing easy access to library items at a time when getting out of the house may be challenging.

We are currently seeking families in the following Sunshine Coast suburbs to be part of our initial trial: 4553, 4556, 4557, 4572, 4575

The program includes:

Welcome Pack sent to family home prior to program commencement
Library staff and trained library volunteers working in partnership with parents to identify and select early literacy and family items from the library collection
A range of items are available including, but not limited to, board books, toys, CDs, picture books, picture audio books, adult fiction, and non-fiction items
Items are delivered to the home on a regular short-term basis, with items due for return also picked up at each visit

The volunteers will not enter your home. This is a delivery service only. You must be a library member to participate. If you do not currently have a membership, one will be created for you.

In the event of volunteer unavailability, library staff may deliver the items.
