Library access lags
Cardinia Shire is falling short when it comes to library access for its growing population of young people, according to data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS).
ABS data analysed by the ABC found growth areas with younger populations like Cardinia, Casey, Melton, Wyndham and Whittlesea had the smallest number of libraries per 100,000 people.
By contrast, smaller municipalities with older people, often closer to the CBD, had some of the best rates of library access.
