Members can visit the office to chat with other quilters, browse and borrow books.  If that is not an option for you, requests can be submitted via email, post, fax or phone (not available to members outside Australia).  It is advisable to give a list of 6-8 titles, in order of preference, to ensure we can have some books in the post to you within days. You may choose to reserve a title that is unavailable at the time of your initial request.

Three books may be borrowed at one time (three magazines count as one book). The Guild pays the outward postage and the member pays the return postage. Books may be kept for one month; the due date is shown on the pocket in the front of the book. Please ensure that books are returned on time and in good condition.

During 2011, a list of books arranged by subject matter will be compiled but, in the interim, you are welcome to write to Rhonda Taylor, Guild Librarian, with details of the information you are seeking and every effort will be made to find it for you.  (Be sure to provide a phone number in addition to your postal address.) This service is a boon for quilters outside urban areas, giving you access to a huge range of books for just the cost of posting the books back to the Guild office.
