Tumut is located about 150 miles from Canberra and about 300 miles from Syndey with a population of approximately 11,700 and is primarily a rural community. Saugerties Librarian, Beverly Kane and Tumut Librarian, Lyn Quince, are busily preparing a program to commence with the new millenium. Initially, local children, aged 5 to 18, are invited to be part of an e-mail pal group. Children will be able to use the library computers to communicate with their own e-mail pal and exchange ideas such as favorite books, movies and other interests. Later the program will be extended to multicultural storytimes and activities on the library s home page.
Children can register their interest by talking to library staff.
