Street Libraries support communities to build resilience and establish a strong sense of place.
Street Library Australia is a registered not-for-profit and a charity with a focus on creating community connections and promoting literacy through Street Libraries.
This free webinar is for community workers and placemakers from all levels of government and government-affiliated organisations, as well as individuals interested in learning how Street Libraries can impact communities.
It will provide a snapshot of how these tiny vestibules of literary happiness can make a valuable contribution to your community, while sharing straightforward information on how you can access the benefits of having Street Libraries within your LGA.
Place Partners’ founding Director Kylie Legge, a leading voice in the evolving profession of placemaking, will provide insights into how this no-strings-attached approach to literacy will enrich and unite the residents of your LGA.
Kylie will be joined by Melanie Tait of City North Men’s Shed (Sydney) and Kim Marsh, Place Manager, Infrastructure Grants & Major Projects, for the City of Parramatta who will share their successes in community activation through the installation of Street Libraries.
