Bundaberg Regional Libraries
Bundaberg Regional Libraries is one of the busiest and largest library services in regional Queensland. The Library branches in Bundaberg, Childers, Gin Gin and Woodgate Beach are popular community hubs. The Libraries serve a population of around 97,000; hold around 130,000 items; and issue approximately 1 million items per year.
On 15 March 2008 statewide Council amalgamations saw the former Bundaberg City, Burnett Shire, Kolan Shire and Isis Shire meld to form the Bundaberg Regional Council. Bundaberg Library went from being a single service library to a headquarters branch for the Bundaberg Regional Libraries, with existing libraries in Gin Gin, Childers, and Woodgate Beach also becoming branches of the new amalgamated service.
