Quiet hour at the library

1 Aug 2024 - 31 May 2025

Moreton Bay Region Libraries have Quiet Hour sessions every week. The aim is to create a low sensory setting to make our libraries accessible to our diverse community.

Come in during this time for a calm and quiet library experience. During Quiet Hour, the library transforms into a sensory friendly space:

We reduce lighting where possible.
We turn off background music.
We only use the announcement system for emergencies and closing.
We turn down our phones and computers.
We keep conversations low.

Our sensory-friendly hours are open to all ages and are family friendly. No bookings are necessary. Find a session to enjoy quiet time at a library near you.
