Kiama Council
Kiama Library’s latest self-guided tour lets you experience walking the streets of Kiama during the First World War.
Using your smartphone and the Kiama Library Tours app, you can take the 2.3 kilometre tour at your leisure, stopping along the way to learn about a soldier’s story, places relevant to the Anzacs and important sites in Kiama’s World War One history.
The Kiama WW1 tour, which features 15 stops, begins at Kiama Library, circles around our Showground, along the Coastal Walk, follows the Waratah March down Terralong St and concludes at Black Beach.
The 15 locations provide a glimpse into the Kiama of 1914 using interactive imaging technology and audio that allows users to ‘see’ and hear more places such as Kiama Memorial Arch and the two army training camps that were established at Barroul and Showground.

After months of development, we are pleased (and excited) to launch the new Kiama Library website.
User-friendly, interactive, easy to navigate and intuitively organised, our redesigned site comes with new resources and features.
Notable differences include:
Quick links for Adults, Youth and Kids so you can find relevant information and resources quickly and easily
A whole range of new eLibrary resources, including Kanopy video streaming, National Geographic and Gale eLearning databases and platforms (Business, Science, News, and Health and Wellness centres, etc.). Visit our eLibrary to get started.
Our new shelf-help service – need help finding your next great read? Why not try one of our suggested new titles or authors in your favourite genre, or ask for a personalised suggestion from one of our knowledgeable librarians.
