This week we hosted a workshop on “LibraryThing" at our Museum, attended by members of the Picton Historical Society and Camden Historical Society. The workshop explored new ways to catalogue and share our resources and will help us make our reference library and collection more accessible to the broader community, researchers and local history groups. We would like to thank Marlane Fairfax from Picton Hist Soc for organising and Kevin Dodds from Friends of Parramatta Female Factory for presenting such an informative presentation.
