Editing Municipality of Strathfield (section)

==Council facilities==
The council operates a main library located on Rochester Street in Homebush. The library was demolished in 2002 and a new library was built and opened in 2004.

Historically, the municipality's main library was located on Parramatta Road in Homebush, inherited from the former Homebush Municipality (which governed the northern part of the modern suburb of Homebush) after it merged into Strathfield in 1947. The Parramatta Road library served as the municipality's main library until 1967, when the High Street library became the main library, and the Parramatta Road library was closed in 1976 after the Rochester Street library was opened.

The council formerly operated a branch library on High Street in Strathfield South, which was rebuilt and opened in 2008. However, the branch library was closed in 2019 and converted into a community centre, with some book lockers to continue some library services from this location.<ref>[http://www.strathfield.nsw.gov.au/home/library/ Strathfield Council – Library] Retrieved 11 August 2014.</ref>

The municipality's main community centre, the Strathfield Community Centre, is located at 1B Bates Street, Homebush, in Airey Park.

The former South Strathfield Bowling Club was bought by Strathfield Council and renovated with a grant of $495,00 from the Department of Aging, Disability and Home Care. The building was opened as a community centre on 3 December 2012 and named in honour of [[Eve Dutton]] who was the first female mayor of Strathfield. This community centre gives priority access to services and programs for aged and disability groups.<ref>[http://www.burwoodscene.com.au/2012/12/04/new-home-for-meals-on-wheels/ New home for Meals on Wheels] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140813183530/http://www.burwoodscene.com.au/2012/12/04/new-home-for-meals-on-wheels/ |date=13 August 2014 }} Retrieved 13 August 2014.</ref> It houses Strathfield/Homebush Meals on Wheels and Inner West Community Transport.<ref>[http://www.transportconnect.org.au/resources/PDF/Media%20Release%20Opening%20of%20The%20Dutton%20Centre.pdf Inner West a Community Transport] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140302143244/http://www.transportconnect.org.au/resources/PDF/Media%20Release%20Opening%20of%20The%20Dutton%20Centre.pdf |date=2 March 2014 }} Retrieved 13 August 2013.</ref>
