The Adelaide City Library's History Hub is now offering one-on-one sessions to help you bring your history project to life!

The History Hub, with locations in the Adelaide City Library and North Adelaide Library, has worked with a wide range of leading historical organisations and individuals to enhance the community’s connection with the City’s past and present. History Hub programs and resources have enlightened the community with amazing exhibitions, online tours, assistance with research projects, interactive presentations, one-on-one training and more.

The History Hub includes the Adelaide Picture Collection which offers thousands of photographs of Adelaide’s surrounds including the city centre, North Adelaide and the Park Lands dating from the mid-19th Century.

The City Library is the largest of our libraries. This modern library is located on one level and offers a variety of programs and services for everyone.

Getting Here

The city centre is serviced by all forms of public transport including trains (Adelaide station 650m), trams (closest stop Rundle Mall 280m) and buses (closest stops in Grenfell Street - F4 and G2 northern side and T3 and T2 southern side).

For public transport routes and timetables see the Adelaide Metro website.

If you are already within the city or North Adelaide, the Adelaide Free connector bus is a great option. The large loop (98a and 98c) connects North Adelaide and the City, while the small loop (99a and 99c) connects the inner city areas that are not serviced by the tram.

Please note that Rundle Mall is a vehicle free zone. For those with mobility issues, we recommend entry from Grenfell Street (through Da Costa arcade or Rundle Place (see above).

The closest taxi rank is on the southern side of Grenfell Street, near Gawler Place, or on Pulteney Street, near Hungry Jacks.

The closest car park is Rundle Place car park, located on Level 6. There are several other off-street car parks nearby, including UPark Gawler Place Gawler Place and Rundle Street.

Accessibility

Since before the doors opened at the City Library, the City of Adelaide Access and Inclusion Advisory Panel (AIAP) has been working with library staff to ensure that the library is a welcome and inclusive place for everyone to enjoy.
