The National Association provides funding to support Branch libraries; ensuring up-to-date resources are available for members.

NSW has a fully functioning library containing books and magazines on a wide range of textile arts. 
To view the NSW Library catalogue, please log in to the members area and select the Library link.

Members may borrow in person when attending Branch or Social Meetings held at Epping. Three books may be borrowed, with three magazines counting as one book. Books borrowed at meetings are due for return on the 1st of the month, after which they were borrowed.

The NSW librarian can also post items to members, with the return cost paid by the member. Postage must be by registered mail. Items should be returned within six weeks after notification of their dispatch.
