Prahran Library

As libraries go this one is pretty small. It does have the advantage of being part of Stonnington City's libraries so you can order books in from the other bigger libraries. The dvd collection contains a lot of popular movies and TV series but also some more unusual and art house movies and series which I was really surprised to find there. The music section has some good cd's to choose from as well. The internet access is absolutely appalling though, both slow and not enough computers to share, and they don't even have wireless (wifi) for people with laptops. The book range is pretty ordinary though every so often you find something local or interesting, and you can always request something from another library.
