Membership is free to all residents of Invercargill, Southland and South Otago.

If you would like to join up next time you come in make sure you provide some identification and proof of your address at any of our help desks and we will join you and your family up in a matter of minutes.

If you are already a member make sure your info is up to date on the catalogue, here you can change your address, your email and phone numbers.

The library prides itself in having a quality, experienced professional staff offering a wide range of services. Invercargill City Libraries has the reputation of being one of the best public library services in New Zealand.

In May 2008, the library opened an archives research facility that will house community archives and council archival records. The redeveloped building is directly accessible from the central library. A multi story car parking building is directly linked to the library and archive facility.
