ALIA and the Living Libraries Strategy project
ALIA has been represented on the National Living Libraries Strategy Project Steering Committee and working with other reps on the committee over the past couple of years to further and assist with the Living Libraries Australia Strategy which has been a project funded by the Department of Immigration and Citizenship and supported by Lismore City Council. Does your library have a ‘living library’ ?? See the list of libraries and other organisations involved here. It’s not just public libraries that conduct living libraries - University, school and TAFE libraries are also involved.
Future developments include the production of a promotional CD about Living Libraries and living books. There are already great resources available at the website to help your library start a living library project.
