A small Auckland Libraries branch in the historic Jubilee Building at 545 Parnell Road, the former home of the Blind Foundation. The library shares the Foundation Precinct with a community centre and the Parnell Farmers' Market, which runs on Saturday mornings. Its team describes the branch as a boutique library, with regular patrons known by name. Regular programmes include Wriggle and Rhyme for children, which runs in school term time only. A monthly book group meets on the first Thursday of the month from 10 to 11 am, and a listening group called Tea with Tales meets on the last Thursday from 10 to 11 am for people who prefer audiobooks. Anyone who wants help with a tablet or e-reader, or with Auckland Libraries e-books, e-magazines and e-audiobooks, can book a one-on-one session with a librarian. Parnell is Auckland's first suburb, and the library sits in the heart of the village.
