We're making a new website – have your say here: http://www.tasman.govt.nz/survey

Richmond Library building upgrade

The shift into the new part of the library has gone well and we’ve received many favourable comments about the light, airy look of the interior. Work on the final cladding on the Petrie carpark entrance is almost complete. Meanwhile the builders are making good progress on the old part of the building.

We appreciate your feedback about the current layout – it is only temporary. Once the remainder of the building has been re-furbished we’ll be moving again, spreading out to fill the whole ground floor. We’ll also be bringing back the books that we had to pack away in order to fit in to a smaller space.

You can take a look at the progress of the building upgrade on our flickr site www.flickr.com/photos/38556618@N03/

Richmond Library – same place, different space



Name our Digital Creation Studio

The winner of the 'Name our content creation studio' is Tui Kraal of Takaka, Tui's winning entry is 'The Imaginarium'. Tui chose The Imaginarium because the content creation studio is a place where people are encouraged to use their imagination and creativity. The suffix -arium means place, so Imaginarium means a place to let your imagination run wild!'

Tui wins a digital camera!

Judges were impressed with the wide range of creative entries to the competition, with some entries coming from as far away as Auckland and Christchurch.
