Winter school programmes are organised every year by different schools to assist matric learners and prepare them for final exams.
Head of library and information services Karin Muller said they were looking forward to assisting the community by providing access to library services.
“We are proud to be of assistance to all members of the community in our various areas.

“I am proud to say that our libraries also have services for the visually impaired,’’ she said.
Muller said there were several services offered in libraries within the City, which can be of assistance to learners during the winter school programme.
“These services include the drop-and-collect, which allows learners to borrow material from the library and arrange to collect it at a particular time and day, as well as dropping it off at a specific box at the library.
“There is also a Press Reader, which allows patrons to have access to over 7 000 newspapers and magazines at the click of a button. Free Wi-fi is also accessible in all our libraries for all patrons who use the library facility and for learners to do their research at the comfort of the library and their mobile phones,” said Muller.
Other additional services, according to Muller, are the computers and auxiliary services where patrons can print as well as photocopy any library material they need.
