Curators’ Tour of World of the Book
Melbourne Rare Book Week
Every year since it first opened in 2005, the World of the Book exhibition has featured changing displays of rare, sacred, and iconic books from State Library Victoria’s collection. The exhibition celebrates the unique place books have in our hearts and minds, along with the many stories they tell. Join curators Anna Welch, Daniel Wee and Jodi Kok for a special tour celebrating 20 years of this beloved exhibition, exploring the history of book design, production, and illustration from the ancient world to today.
Presented by: State Library Victoria at State Library Victoria, 328 Swanston Street. Meet at the Swanston Street Welcome Zone.Subscribe to events
