Two presentations were held on Monday 6 April at the Charters Towers library.  Participants had the opportunity to closely examine some early Charters Towers related historical items from John Oxley Library, including an early album of photographs and an 1890s minute book of the Charters Towers Literary and Debating Society.

Feedback was positive with participants taking full advantage of this personal interaction with some of the John Oxley Library’s most significant collection items.
