Standing five storeys tall, Punggol Regional Library opened in 2023 and has a strong focus on accessibility, with accessible collections, features such as calm pods, and also assistive technology devices, such as keyboards with large print keys. It has an entire floor devoted to technology with facilities for 3D printing, robotics and digital cutting that can be used by NLB members.
Waymap is also up and running at Tampines Bus Interchange and Tampines Mass Rapid Transit station, in the east of the island.
