The Temporary Bulimba Library, currently nestled within the Bulimba Bowls Club at 6 Quinn Street, offers a community-centric experience while the main library undergoes renovations. This interim venue provides a range of facilities that cater to a variety of needs, making it a practical spot for locals and those visiting Brisbane. The library is open from Tuesday to Saturday with varying hours, providing flexibility for those looking to explore its resources.

The library is designed for individuals looking to immerse themselves in reading, studying, or utilizing the available amenities like the photocopier and scanner. A free Wi-Fi connection supports connectivity, while the availability of digital resources, e-books, and traditional reading materials like books and magazines ensures a comprehensive selection for all preferences.

Meeting room facilities are a valuable feature here, supporting both community and business use. They are equipped with modern conveniences such as a data projector, electronic whiteboard, and, in one room, a public access PC. For families, the venue is breastfeeding-friendly and provides baby change facilities, making it a suitable choice for visitors with young children.

Despite its temporary nature, the library continues to engage the local community with sessions like First 5 Forever and reading clubs for varying age groups. The lack of after-hours return means all borrowed items need to be returned during opening hours or at other nearby libraries, such as Carina or Wynnum. The venue is partially accessible, with wheelchair access available for some facilities, enhancing its inclusivity.
