A new Mobile Library was launched in January 2006 . This state-of-the-art vehicle is one of the biggest in Australia and also one of the busiest . The vehicle 's special features include three public access PCs with Internet access via a roof-mounted satellite dish . It also has space for activities such as children 's story times . The mobile attends local festivals and events and has the ability to operate independently with its own generator . The attractive graphics on the vehicle featured local faces .

The mobile library provided a touch of normality for the residents contributing to the initial recovery
