Katie Edmiston from Queensland State Library on 'How do you Library?'


Listen Later

"How do you library?" is a statewide campaign that aims to expand visitation and encourage deeper engagement and participation at libraries across Queensland by highlighting the diversity of services, programs, resources and surprising things people can do at their local library. 

Libraries offer much more than you think; they are places for everyone to connect to knowledge, ideas, technology, community, history, and even other people, the list goes on.

In this episode Gregory Dobbs chats to Katie Edmiston about how your local library is no longer just about books, magazines and newspapers but are now critical community hubs for learning, engagement and services, how going digital has opened up new worlds for accessing information and broadening collections of all kinds, and while libraries will remain the go-to destination for quality information and research guidance, libraries around the state have a bright future that will continue to serve the changing needs of both urban and rural communities.
