Author talks go digital with new library program – Wollongong

James Bradley Ghost Species

Wollongong City Libraries is excited to join forces with NSW Public Libraries to offer a new online author talk series.

Starting with Australian novelist James Bradley on Thursday 20 August this series of free online author talks will also include popular authors Belinda Alexandra, Monica McInerney and Mary Li.

Wollongong City Libraries Manager Library and Community Services Jenny Thompson said that this was an exciting opportunity to offer something different to library customers from the comfort of their own home.

“We have some really fantastic authors lined up to deliver author talks online over the next couple of months so make sure you add these events to your calendar.

“It’s a privilege to work with other libraries to deliver this program to our customers here in Wollongong. With so many of us sticking close to home now, this is a great way for our community to stay connected and engaged by sharing a love of reading.

“These past few months we’ve had to think outside the box on how we can deliver our usual library programs online. Libraries play an important role in the lives of so many of our customers and it’s never been more important to find new ways to offer our services.”

Tickets to these online events are limited. To book your ticket visit the Wollongong City Libraries website
