Fish Hoek Library is a public library in the seaside suburb of Fish Hoek in Cape Town, South Africa. It was ranked 5th in the City of Cape Town's top circulating libraries in 2013.[1]
The library provides access to two online encyclopedias. The library's holdings can be searched online via the City of Cape Town's Open Public Access Catalogue (OPAC).[2]
Fish Hoek is a bedroom community with approximately 9,000 residents.[3] To allow commuters to access resources, the library is open in the evenings. The children's section of the library is used by grandparents who are taking care of their grandchildren while parents are working in the city.
The library holds a monthly literary tea party.[4][5] and conducts a regular book sale.
