Nedlands Library Local Studies is dedicated to collecting and preserving the history and culture of the City of Nedlands. The collection spans Aboriginal heritage through to current events.

Nedlands Local Studies Collection comprises books, photographs, oral histories, local newspapers, newsletters and memorabilia.

Some of the local history publications are available for loan, while others can only be accessed in the library under the supervision of the Local Studies Librarian. If the item you are looking for is not available for loan, please contact the Local Studies Librarian to make a viewing appointment.

The Western Australian Genealogical Society (WAGS) runs genealogical database workshops in the Library Training Room on the second Wednesday of every month.

Bookings recommended – contact the Library to secure your spot.
