QUESTIONS AT THE LIBRARY

The State Library of Victoria is the central library of the state of Victoria, Australia, located in Melbourne. It is on the block bounded by Swanston, La Trobe, Russell, and Little Lonsdale streets, in the northern centre of the central business district. The library holds over 2 million books and 16,000 serials, including the diaries of the city's founders, John Batman and John Pascoe Fawkner, and the folios of Captain James Cook, R.N.. It also houses the original armour of Ned Kelly.

A good place to find answers to your QUESTIONS!

  2. If you want to know, ask a librarian. If we don't know the answer, we know where to find the answer for you!
    Beautiful building!

  3. Your second photo, with the desks going out like spokes in a huge wheel, has a lot of my DNA on the seats. When I was a uni student in the 1960s, this was my go-to place for both research and quiet study.
