A family history group meets at the library on the second and fourth Wednesday of the month at 10.30am. They can lend a hand when starting out. This is an independent program which runs through the library, so attendance can vary.

The library has books about researching family history and the local history of the area. They also subscribe to ProQuest Ancestry Library, an online database that includes Australian electoral rolls, convict records, census records, newspaper articles and journals.

There is a microfiche/film reader and records on the local papers, which are available during opening hours. Staff can assist if necessary.
