Randburg Library

The Randburg Library is one of the regional libraries in the city of Johannesburg, South Africa. The Library serves the township of Cosmo City and the surrounding suburbs; it is situated within the Randburg Civic Centre. It falls under the City of Johannesburg's Region B libraries. Randburg Library is leading the cities efforts to digitally transform libraries with initiatives such as mLiteracy. In August of 2023, the library was gifted with an inverter to enable patrons to use the library during load shedding.

History
The library's origins can be traced back to the 1950s during a time of rapid growth and development in Randburg. In response to the community's increasing demand for access to information and resources, a small lending library was established in 1957 within the existing municipal buildings. This modest space, staffed by volunteer librarians was eventually expanded to a larger and more equipped library in 1971.
