Red Hill Branch – Taxes Now Listed Separately on Items and Services
Red Hill Branch is testing a pricing update where applicable taxes are now added and displayed separately on sale items, including HPL Shop and Makerspace items and services. Member receipts show the tax charged for each item. Black-and-white and color copying/printing remain tax-included.
This change will take effect at all branches starting February 25.
Central and Turner Park Branch - Large Format Printer Unavailable
The large format printer in the Makerspace is currently unavailable. Please utilize our other Makerspace locations if needed. We will advise once it is restored to service.
