OK! Now the reporters at CNN are following the lead of @ehanford and sharing the "news" about failing reading programs in U.S. schools! This should get some attention!

This is an exhibition about love. About the difficult times and the fight for change. It's about our bodies and what we choose to do with them. Look at how far we've come. History isn't always straight.

#PrideRevolution ... free exhibition now open!

A splendid shelf of Ethel Turner books to celebrate her birthday. 🎉 Born #OTD in 1870, Ethel is best-known for her novel 'Seven Little Australians', which has been in print since 1894. The Library is lucky to hold her original manuscripts!
