a long overdue update

Hi all,

So it's been a while, but we've still been chugging along quietly. With some lovely new volunteers, and a host of events coming up, the reading room's calendar (and blog) is going to get a little busier in the upcoming weeks.

And congratulations to Saskia and Genevieve for a very successful opening last month!

Hard to believe we opened just over 10 months ago...I should probably get something organised for our birthday huh...

For the most up-to-date info check back here, or the facebook group, or join the mailing list! Email readingroom.adelaide@gmail.com with 'subscribe' in the subject line.

Here's what's coming up at the reading room...
