How
do I join?

Waverley or Botany Libraries for a registration form. Contact
details are below. The form needs to be signed by a doctor, nurse, or
Meals on Wheel’s officer stating that the incapacity is for a period of
more than three months. This form can be either mailed or handed in to the
library. Home Library staff phone the applicants to discuss the particular
reading requirements and the day on which the items will be delivered. The
service is started as soon as possible after the form is received and
contact is made.
