Chief Executive of Casey Cardinia Libraries Beth Luppino said the donations would to restore a sense of normality to the community after such a difficult period.
“Public libraries play a key role in wellbeing through the provision of free services and safe spaces, helping this library will help the Lismore community recover faster,” Ms Luppino said.
