Event series
Stories from the Stacks
From forgotten gems to untold tales, each monthly lunchtime talk uncovers hidden gems from the extensive collections of the State Library of South Australia. We share stories that span themes, eras, and perspectives and that have shaped who we are as a community. You can watch these talks live, via live stream or on demand.
