Rondebosch Library, Public library in Rondebosch, Cape Town, South Africa.
The Rondebosch Library occupies multiple levels of a former town hall, with the main collection spread across the ground floor and children's section on the upper level.
The building, designed by George Murray Alexander and completed in 1899, features rough stone construction, high teak doorways, and a distinctive teak staircase.
The library contributes to community education through regular workshops, reading programs, and activities that support literacy development for residents of all ages.
Members can access digital resources, use computer stations with free internet, and utilize study spaces during the library's regular operating hours throughout the week.
A stained glass window above the portico balcony displays the Rondebosch municipal crest alongside a view of Devil's Peak and the surrounding area.
