The Library Bulletin

The recent announcement of the easing of COVID-19 restrictions will result in a few changes in the library.

Please note the following :

• You must still register on entry to the library. Members may register with their Bar Library e-card (if you don't have your e-card please email library@nswbar.asn.au), others via the QR code at the library entrance. PLEASE BRING YOUR PHONE.
• Please sanitise your hands on arrival and departure. It is recommended that you wear a mask.
