ALIA Island celebrated the Australian Reading Hour on 14 September with a Zoom discussion on the theme ‘Stories that Matter’: life-changing books; favourites; or the book they were currently reading. It was wonderful to get so many perspectives and to hear stories of how different books made an impact on participants at different stages of their lives.
Special guest and librarian, Rauri Murphy, spoke about his newly published Two Sets of Books which is set in Hobart Public Library. It looks like a wonderful read and profits from the book sales will be used to purchase books and eResources for Libraries Tasmania Literacy Service and 26TEN. Available from good bookstores – check on line.
