The City of Gosnells Knowledge Centre at The Agonis celebrated its 20th anniversary this month with an official name change to Gosnells Library.

During a special event to celebrate the library’s 20th birthday, Mayor Terresa Lynes announced that the Knowledge Centre will revert to the name of the original library on the same site. 

“The decision to revert to Gosnells Library does not change the fact that this facility will continue to be a wonderful place for locals and community groups to come together − whether it is for a workshop, our popular storytime or craft sessions or to simply borrow their next riveting read or other library resource,” Mayor Lynes said. 

“We hope the renamed Gosnells Library will continue to be a place where local people can come to read, learn, participate in one of the many programs, or connect with others in the community.” 

Joined by Cr Balli Singh, Cr Peter Abetz and Cr Saiful Islam, Mayor Lynes shared some of the building’s history before cutting the first slice of a specially prepared birthday cake. 

Other birthday activities included face painting, party hat and card making, and a birthday storytime.
