The staff are always friendly and helpful and the resources & memorabilia they have is amazing! Anything you want to know about Geelong and its surrounds, they will have or find for you. For genealogy purposes, they have heaps of resources, either in print, on microfiche or software on their computers.
They are only open Tues, Wed, Thurs which can be a problem. Entry is free but they do encourage donations of gold coins. Worth every cent. Photocopying can be done there for a charge.
