No, it's the City Library.
So's the City Library.
Which is why I asked. I wasn't aware there was another public library in the City…
I was wondering how you could drink coffee in the State Library when they don't allow any food or drink (except for water bottles)
@jv: I don't know why they are being so hard on you, easy enough mistake to make if you've never heard of the City Library. If someone told me "meet me at the city library" I probably would have shown up at the State Library because I had never heard about the City Library until now either and the State Library is such a prominent landmark located in the city.
Here you go jv
yep, shows the State Library on your search…

City Library
253 Flinders Lane,
Melbourne Victoria 3000
City Library is located in the CAE building near the corner of Degraves Street and Flinders Lane, between Swanston and Elizabeth Streets.
I too had no idea there was another library in the CBD of Melbourne.
The city library is the cooler more modern brother to the state library. Its a borrowing library - you can borrow books totally foc and there are made up of a number of libraries throughout Melbourne.
+1 for Dukes coffee. Pretty good coffee.
Sorry to interrupt this humorous wee lovers tiff, but I thought I'd ask if there's a list of other joints that always have free coffee on offer already compiled somewhere on OzB…
A few spring to my mind, including Bunnings (in the trades section), Officeworks, Masters et al. …
+1 for that chick wearing glasses.
it's a bloke…
Massive beard under that mug.
Seems to be the perfect place for it.
@nismo: For both men and women?
haha this is great. with the addition of free gloria jeans coffee, I can have two cups a day :)
Perfect for SWATVAC!
Pity I don't study at CBD any more :(
Do I have to study? Can't I just walk in and get my free coffee and leave?
sure, that will be $3.80, thank you.
Why? It says the coffee is free and there are no T&C's posted above
well you have your answer then. i was just messing with you
do you really think the library staff have the right to detain anyone from leaving :)
@juventino: if the alarm goes off on your way out, they have the right to yell 'stop!'
You can't have free coffee if you were born after 1988.
Hot coffee mod.
or was it hot chocolate? can't rem
When i saw the picture of the girl with books behind her, I thought it was another one of those library videos but that didn't have free coffee.
Is it something that rhymes with… Hookworm Riches?
how do you redeem this??
Free coffee is only available from 3:30-5pm

Its terrible coffee, do NOT recommend.
Might be Dukes beans, but its poorly made percolator.
