Our Libraries
Like others I was concerned about overdue fees for my library books.
I had trouble finding any info about this.
However I found the following, very well hidden info, on the Spydus site so I thought I'd share it.
Stay safe everyone. See you on the other side.
Kāpiti Coast District Libraries are closed until further notice.
We know that this will be hard for our customers, but we want to be sure that we are all safe.
Please keep library items at home until we let you know otherwise. Book return slots will be closed.
All loans will be extended by 6 weeks as of 23 March 2020. If we are closed for longer than 6 weeks, we will extend loans again. There will be no fines for that period.
We encourage you to use our Axis360 and PressReader apps. Use your library card and password to log in (if you have no password you will be able to create one.
We will be working on ways to keep library resources available, but at the moment we don’t know what that will look like.
We will be keeping our Facebook page and website updated as we receive new information.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
