Overview

Established in Sydney in 1937 by a group of Loreto Past Pupils to be a library and recreation centre for children in an industrial area. The Library stopped services during World War II.

In 1947 the over one thousand books were given to the Theresian Club (St. Vincent’s Hospital, Darlinghurst), especially devoted to needy children.
