Helena acknowledges the inspiration for her display comes from WA TL Michelle G and the fabulous ideas on her Instagram page.
The wooden cubby comes from Kmart (approx $200), and has been a sound investment, used as a gingerbread house for reading Christmas fairytales, a haberdashery shop referencing Norton & the Bear and has lots of other possibilities.

There is inescapable value in celebrating Library Lovers Day in the information age because it underpins a lifelong pursuit of knowledge and a growth mindset. Research institutions confirm that scientists, doctors, and lawyers read more than the average individual because their jobs require continuous learning. Without libraries, the world would not even have screenwriters, storyboard artists, or many groundbreaking discoveries.
Here's 15 ways to celebrate libraries - from the 2021 site! This will be updated to 2022 when SBL upload their fantastic ideas for this year!
While you're waiting, re-read the 2021 ideas for inspiration, because great ideas never get old :)
