The Friends of the National Library of Australia present their annual collection viewing event. This year’s focus is on birds – kookaburras, cockatoos, budgies and more feathered friends! This special evening will start with a short presentation from renowned ornithologist and author Dr Penny Olsen, who curated the collection of display material.

Following the presentation, guests will have the opportunity to view many of these treasures and speak with staff about the collection, before enjoying some light refreshments and conversations with Friends.

Come and marvel at the beauty of birds and how they have been represented in the Library's collection.
