National Library to Move to Canberra’s New Marble Building
The National Library of Australia will move from its current five storey shell to the new Parliament House site in the Parliamentary Triangle by late next year. A permanent exhibition and a cinema will greet visitors in the building’s theatreette, with hopes to raise public awareness of Australia’s past. The librarian, Harold White, said the plan aims to showcase pictures, manuscripts and motion pictures to deepen national identity and pride in Australian achievements.
