Leys Institute Library Ponsonby
Leys Institute Library Ponsonby, Heritage library in Saint Marys Bay, New Zealand.
The Leys Institute Library contains two levels of educational spaces within an Edwardian Baroque building at 14 Jervois Road in Ponsonby.
William Leys established the institute through his 1899 will, leading to the library opening in 1905 with support from his brother Thomson and Auckland City Council.
The institute promotes education through various programs, including a Social Knitting Club and Dungeons & Dragons gatherings for community engagement.
The library provides computer access, printing services, photocopying facilities, and free WiFi, with parking spaces available behind the building.
In 2019, Auckland Council allocated 9.6 million dollars for strengthening works to protect this Category 1 historic structure from earthquake risks.
