If you are coming by rail, use Punggol MRT/LRT (NE17/PTC), Exit A, and follow the current mall directory to The Cove.

Waterway Point is at 83 Punggol Central. Its visitor information directs rail passengers to Exit A at Punggol station. Inside the mall, look up The Cove in the current directory and make your way to Basement 2. The photos show the mall and its public circulation, while the current directory identifies the reading stop.
If a friend is joining you from another entrance, send “The Cove, Basement 2, Waterway Point.” If you need a lift or the directory does not show the node, ask staff for the current route. Agree on a second landmark if the area is temporarily in use for another event.

Invite a child to pick one book by its cover or subject. Try one page or a short section and ask whether they want to continue. If you are waiting for another person, agree when to stop so the child knows what happens next. If there are no suitable books available, choose a different activity and try again another day.
Read the instructions at the node before taking or leaving a book. If you have borrowed an item through NLB’s regular lending system, check its return instructions separately. If you want a particular title, search the catalogue or visit a branch where you can check availability.
