October is Black History Month, a time to recognise and celebrate the contribution made by Black people in our communities and beyond. Inspired by this year’s theme of Saluting our Sisters, Singleton Park Library has a display of books by and about notable Black women from our collection.  You can also browse the Black History reading list on our Diversifying library collections pages.

If you’re looking for something good to read, look out for fiction displays in Bay and Singleton Park Libraries. We’ve got a selection of novels by Black authors for you to browse and borrow this month.
