Welcome to the library
The MCWH Library is located at our MCWH office in Collingwood, Melbourne/Naarm.
It is specialist library of women’s health resources made for migrant and refugee communities in languages other than English or easy to read English.
Our library is a welcoming place where women can connect and build life long knowledge and skills for their health and wellbeing.
Currently MCWH staff are working in a hybrid model, which means our library is open by appointment only, during business hours Monday to Friday. For more information please contact carmela@mcwh.com.au.
About the collection
This library collection has been built by women from migrant and refugee backgrounds for over 30 years on topics such as:
- women’s health and wellbeing
- migrant and refugee women’s experiences
- health information relevant to living in Australia
Using the Library
