Inclusive facilities
Parents rooms and changing tables (non-gendered) for all parents or caregivers to use. Both gendered and gender neutral bathroom facilities. I loved the idea of providing a space for people to have accessible bathing areas. All facilities to meet accessibility needs for people with physical disabilities. However design and operation of the whole library facility should consider all kinds of disability, impairment and access needs.

Books are inclusive. But have lots of options for reading, like Libby, online readers for those of us who can't see well.

Not the most recognised function of a library. Nice to have but can be developed through other community organisations.
