These are just some of the ways li’l street libraries are fostering a love for reading and bringing neighbours together in creative ways. The li’l street library team is looking to get a library in every Canberra suburb by the end of this year, and last night the Belconnen Community Council announced a partnership with the local Belconnen Men’s Shed to help create some libraries for people who might want to host one but might not have the resources to be able to create or acquire one.

I am looking forward to visiting more in the near future. I cannot wait for Belconnen to be the first district in Canberra to have a street library in every suburb, and I think it is only a matter of weeks.

Question resolved in the affirmative.

The Assembly adjourned at 6.43 pm.
