Donations

The Horizon Energy Group Library Whakatāne is delighted to accept donations as gifts, on the understanding that this is not in exchange for a reduction in fees or other charges.

We are not always able to use items that are donated to us. In this case, we will consider/advise of other options including:

• Donating to Whakatāne Museum and Gallery
• Donating to other libraries
• Include items in our book sales, thus indirectly assisting the library
• Other appropriate forms of disposal

Volunteers

All Whakatāne District library branches need volunteers.

Volunteers are a valuable resource for our libraries, and without them we would be unable to provide some services.

You can help us by:

• Shelving (just returned items)
• Shelf checking that items are in correct order on the shelves
• Book mending
• Story telling
• Delivering to and collecting items from house bound members

Call us for further information.
