About Aramoho Library
Aramoho Library functions as a neighbourhood lending point within the Whanganui District Library system. It maintains a smaller on-site collection than the main Davis Library but supports requests and transfers from the full network, allowing users to collect items ordered from other branches.
The library occupies the site of the former Aramoho School and opened as a self-service community facility in 2021. It contributes to the council’s goal of maintaining accessible library services across Whanganui suburbs.
Aramoho is a historic riverside suburb north of the city centre. The library supports everyday reading needs for local residents and integrates with the broader Whanganui District Council library services, including e-resources and inter-branch loans.
