FREE School Holiday Events
Welcome to the April edition of the Connected Libraries e-newsletter.
We've had some great author talks on at the library last month including Victoria Devine, Nicola Marsh and Alison Stuart.
This month we welcome Christian White and Amanda Hampson (author of the Tea Ladies series) to Bunjil Place Library on Thursday 10 April. Don't miss out, book your spot now.
School holiday bookings are now open! We have loads of programs to keep kids entertained at the library over the school holidays. Some of these events include Dinosaur Discovery with Melbourne Museum, Autumn Leaf Suncatchers, Wrapped Wooly Owls and Lego Flower Festival. Book now to avoid missing out.
Please note all libraries will be closed from Friday 18 April - Monday 21 April (inclusive) for the Easter long weekend and will also be closed Friday 25 April for ANZAC Day.
See you at the library.

A Night of Crime with Christian White & Amanda Hampson
The master of the twist, Christian White, is back with his fourth page-turning triumph and it will have you guessing until the very end. The Ledge is a propulsive thriller that asks the question: How far would you go to
help a friend?
Following the success of The Tea Ladies and The Cryptic Clue, Amanda Hampson is back with The Deadly Dispute - the next instalment in her beautifully nostalgic cosy crime Tea Ladies series that shines a spotlight on older women.
Book sales and signings available on the night.
