Welcome to Central Library! Situated in the heart of the Cape Town CBD, we are surrounded by the rich history, awe-inspiring beauty and the incredible innovation that makes the Mother City great. We inhabit the Old Drill Hall on the corner of Parade and Darling Streets - find us across from the Grand Parade, next to the historic City Hall, and within walking distance of the public transport hub.
Within our walls you will find books old and new, across a wide variety of topics and genres. You will find the largest free public internet hub, free Wi-Fi, a dedicated art library, a dedicated music library, a reference section that makes students weep with gratitude, and a group of people to skilfully guide you when navigating the waters of information.
This blog aims to highlight our collection, from e-resources to books, and will be updated regularly. Please let us know if you have any suggestions, comments or complaints. Full details on the Contact page.
