Library staff members Lesley Conway and Pia Butcher run a radio show each Wednesday 12:05pm-12:45pm on Eastern FM 98.1 called The Eastern Regional Library Show. Tune in next Wednesday for a great show.
On 17th June show
Books for Troops is a project dear to the heart of Alan Bennett, our resident Military History buff. He has managed to send 50 parcels overseas this year, but needs more contributions. If you have any paperback fiction or non-fiction in good condition that you are prepared to donate, drop it into one of our branches and we will send it on to Alan at Croydon. Alan's June edition Military History Group newsletter has just come out, and you can read it on this website, or subscribe for it to be emailed to you. It is always an interesting read.
There is also a regular newsletter on Family History from Kathy Smalley, with updates on new resources in our libraries and information and training sessions. Kathy also keeps track of interesting events coming up with The Genealogical Society of Victoria (www.gsv.org.au) and the Australian Institute of Genealogical Studies (http://www.aigs.org.au)
Music today was from Strauss and Co, from Andre Rieu and his orchestra
