Inspirational, innovative and iconic: these are words with which the Geelong Library & Heritage Centre (the Dome) has already become synonymous.

Symbolic of the evolution of Geelong from a city founded on heavy industry to a centre for excellence, culture and learning. The Dome’s existence is the result of a bold and unwavering vision and represents the culmination of many years of lobbying, planning and collaborative effort.

Sophisticated and technology-rich, this world-class facility is designed to meet the expectations of 21st century public library users, providing contemporary and innovative library and information services. It is also a vibrant gathering space for local residents, workers and visitors to enjoy – a tourist destination in the heart of Geelong’s cultural precinct.

Within the iconic domed building, there are five public levels – all beautiful, inspiring and inclusive spaces for reading, studying, meeting, discovery and fun.
