Went to see free exhibition (Cook and the Pacific) with the kids, one in a pram. Staff were great, no issues. Will need to go back sans children, so I can have a proper look.Not the first exhibition I have seen there, always well curated and full of interesting items.Great location overlooking the lake, surrounded by public art and part of the parliamentary triangle. Has a cafe, bookshop, paid parking. They have a reading room too.

Fantastic resource for all, not just those who live in Canberra. Special mention to Sonja who was incredibly helpful when my friend and I visited. Good to know that the hold every book published in Australia!

Wonderful place to do some studying or research.Chair looks comfy and the view from the windows is just relaxing.River side walking trail let you relax your brain if you study in the library for extended hours.

I fell in love with the place, one of my favorite places in Canberra; indeed a flagship of Australia in terms of great people, architecture, arts and superb food! Warmth wormed effortlessly into our hearts

A national treasure with a collection rivaling the great libraries of the world. Calm environment for research and study; excellent amenities (clean toilets, free lockers, water fountains). There is also a bit for the visitor too with exhibits and galleries on rotation. Bookplate is a very popular restaurant with spectacular views across the lake, and they cater for vegans. Free wifi and ample parking.
