State Library Victoria is a bookworm's paradise! 📚 The library vibes are a mix of old-school charm and modern comfort. You can get lost in the stacks, discover hidden nooks for reading, or just soak in the literary atmosphere. The majestic reading room is like Hogwarts for grown-ups, and the Dome is an Insta-worthy masterpiece. Whether you're a hardcore reader or just want a quiet escape, this place is a top pick. Grab a book, find a cozy spot, and let the reading adventures begin! 📖✨

I visited the Victoria Library last Saturday and was impressed with the extensive collection of books and resources available. The staff were helpful and knowledgeable, making it easy to navigate the library and find what I was looking for. The atmosphere was peaceful and conducive to studying or reading. I liked very much that they allocated sections for study and work with free and fast internet and free computers. It is really a wonderful gesture from the Victorian government. 💯👏

A must visit when in Melbourne, peaceful, quiet, historical, educational. Gorgeous historical building with lots of spaces to explore with a free exhibition. Always diverse group of people at the front of the building on benches, grass, playing chess. Awesome vibe. Loved Melbourne space.

I visited the State Library recently for a function in its Conversation Room. A beautiful function space with each wall a different style, creating quite a striking impression. Facilities are clean and nice. The library space itself is beautiful, set under the huge dome. Green brass lamps and reading desks, plus books are free to access for a quiet read. Climb the stairs for a magnificent view looking down into the library.😉

The State Library is an iconic place to visit - even if you are not a bookworm! The architecture is absolutely stunning. We joined the free “World of Books” tour which contained many gems from around the globe. Our guide, Wendy, was extremely knowledgable and gave a brilliant tour. Plus the Lego version of the library is so cool. The detail is awesome!
