Retiree discovery. UGH!! Then there’s the magic of public libraries and the discoveries they bring especially for children. My hero Gough Whitlam announced the Public Lending Right scheme on 13 May 1974, so that Australian writers, illustrators and creatives would be compensated for loss of income from the use of their work in public lending libraries. This was a policy which led to libraries becoming literary centres of excellence.
