Pride Line
Thursday March 2nd – Sunday July 9th, 24 hours a day
As part of our Library’s commitment to supporting our LGBTQI+ community we’re working with the State Library of NSW to promote a new campaign called Pride Line, where members of the public are being asked to share their stories of pride.
Anyone can call Pride Line from their own device on 9273 1212 (local call costs apply) and leave a voice message with their thoughts, feelings and experiences. The recordings will then be collected as part of the State Library’s LGBTQI+ collections.
Pride Line will run 24 hours a day from Thursday 2 March until Sunday 9 July 2023.
For more information, please visit www.sl.nsw.gov.au/prideline

Ben’s Book Club
Tuesday, April 25th, 7.30pm – 8.30pm
Join Ben Hobson in conversation with author Joanna Jenkins to discuss her gripping thriller ‘How to Kill a Client’. This event will be hosted on Zoom, and the link will be sent to all attendees on the day of the event.
Joanna Jenkins grew up on a small farm in country Queensland. After graduating from the University of Queensland in the late eighties with degrees in English Literature and Law, she practised as a solicitor in Big Law, including, for many years, as a partner of an international law firm. In one firm she worked at, Joanna was the first person to work part-time after having a baby, and in another was, for a couple of years, the only female partner of the Brisbane office. She now writes full-time. Married with three sons, Joanna lives in Brisbane. ‘How to Kill a Client’ is her first novel.
During this digital book club, guests will have the opportunity to ask questions, interact with the authors, and enjoy a well-rounded bookish discussion.
