Frankston City Libraries will celebrate Library and Information Week from May 22-28.
LIW, which aims to raise the profile of libraries and information services professionals, was designed to promote the value of literacy and reading to all, and reaffirm how vital Australia’s book industry is. Frankston City Libraries recorded more than 400,000 visits in 2015-2016, a grand total of 932,354 library items borrowed, and 30,000 attendees at library events.
The theme for this year’s Library and Information Week is ‘Celebrate’, and there’s much to celebrate with, including Wendy Mak spilling the secrets of The Capsule Wardrobe, coding for adults, and a talk from best-selling author Alice Pung. For the little book-lovers there is National Simultaneous Storytime with The Cow Tripped Over the Moon, and The Flying Bookworm Theatre will present A Magical Journey. For the full program, visit the Frankston Cities Libraries website.
