The Hunter’s first library museum has been given the go ahead in Lake Macquarie.
Council approved the development application at last night’s Council meeting for the construction of the library museum that will eventually become home to the Edgeworth library.
Lake Macquarie Mayor Cr Kay Fraser said the Sugar Valley Library Museum at Cameron Park would be an engaging, innovative cultural destination at the forefront of public libraries in the region, with the capacity to exhibit thousands of historically significant items.
“I’m excited to see this new community hub bring together innovative technology, traditional library services and a dynamic program of events and exhibitions,” Cr Fraser said.
