Library
The Australian Quilter's
Association owns and runs an extensive and up-to-date library of
books, magazines, kits, equipment, CD's and videos. We have over
1600 items to brrow and enjoy.
The Library is open each meeting day (first of each month, allowing
for Public holidays) and the hours are from 10-15 am to 11-00am
with a break for lunch, then open again from 12-00 pm till 12-30pm
when the afternoon session starts.
The Library is also open at our Wednesday night meeting,this is on the third Wednesday of the month, starting at 7.30pm until 8 pm.
The AQA has been fortunate enough to be able to computerise the
Library over the past year which has made information more readily
available to our members
You may borrow 6 books and 4 magazines at each meeting, with the
understanding that they would be returned at the next session. If
you were unable to attend the next meeting you would contact the
Librarian, who would make a note of your concerns/needs and change
her records accordingly.
We have many magazines - Quilter's Newsletter (USA), Tsushin (Japan),
Magic Patchwork (Europe), Piecework, Threads, Textile Fibre Forum,
etc. Also there are kits and videos to enjoy.
Occasionally there is a sale table of old/retired/donated books
and magazines to browse through and ponder over.
Best of all there is the comraderie and enthusiasm of a group of
ladies who come together to share their love of all
things patchwork and quilting! T
