State Member for Northern Victoria Mark Gepp last week announced the funding for public libraries across Victoria to provide valuable library services.
This funding will expand library collections, boost online services and provide library and outreach programs.
The Public Libraries Funding Program has been allocated $48.1 million in funding for the 2022-23 financial year.
Since 2015, the Labor Government has invested more than $354 million through the program.
Libraries are much-loved community facilities in Victoria. Across the state, more than two million library members borrow more than 31 million items from libraries every year.

Mr Gepp said it was great to see the government continuing to support Campaspe Shire Council to deliver high-quality resources for the community through the Public Libraries Funding Program.
“As our community grows, so do their needs,” Mr Gepp said.
“This funding will provide the Campaspe community to have improved access to digital technology and resources, literacy support services, traditional collections, event spaces and workstations.”
