13.01.2022 It can be so therapeutic recording thoughts and feelings, and in this pandemic year, people have been doing just that. Reading some of these entries in The Diary Files managed by The State Library of NSW gives a better understanding of the different ways people have been affected by the changed circumstances of their lives. You can contribute your own, and have your impressions recorded too. https://dxlab.sl.nsw.gov.au/diary-files/

04.01.2022 Can you believe that on this day, in 2007, the first Kindle e-reader was released? I don't know about you but I still like to hold an actual book in my hands - however, digital books are lightweight, easy to take on holiday, and generally cheaper than their heavier print cousins.
