Port Phillip Heritage Centre
The Port Phillip Heritage Centre is a place for connecting with our local history and discovering the objects and stories that make up the cultural heritage of the City of Port Phillip.
Housed within the Emerald Hill Library in South Melbourne, the Port Phillip Heritage Centre provides access to historical information and a rich range of experiences through its resources, programs and staff.
Our Library Survey
The Port Phillip Library service is committed to continuously improving and so we have created a short and anonymous survey for our members.
We would love to hear your thoughts and ideas so that we can develop our services to our communities.
