Parking for City of Perth Library Visits
The site is at 573 Hay Street, Perth WA 6000, in the central Perth street grid. The City of Perth’s library parking page advertises two-hour free parking on weekends and public holidays, plus $5 night-time parking in the City of Perth (cityofperthparking.com.au).

Wilson Parking lists a car park at 517 Hay Street for the library and History Centre, with parking from $8 (wilsonparking.com.au). The operator also lists facilities at 301 Wellington Street from $3 and 480 Hay Street from $9 for the same attraction (wilsonparking.com.au). These are named alternatives rather than on-site library bays, so the final approach depends on the entry street selected.
