This week we are thrilled to welcome city historian Dr Lisa Murray to directly respond to the Biennale artwork by Meriç Algün Ringborg titled The Library of Unborrowed Books, Section III: SMSA Library‚ Sydney (2014). Hear from Lisa about the role of libraries within our increasingly digital society. Are these institutions on the verge of extinction?
