Leading storytellers Bruce Pascoe, Shankari Chandran, Thomas Keneally AO, Grace Karskens and Kate Evans will reflect on the libraries that have shaped them as readers and writers in a special event in the State Library Auditorium on Tuesday 24 February 2026 from 6 to 7pm.
From tiny mobile libraries to the grand Mitchell Library, the seriousness of university libraries or the tragedy of Sri Lanka’s Jaffna Public Library, hear about how these spaces for reading, creativity and refuge sparked something magical in some of Australia’s finest thinkers.
