Lectures
The State Library holds three important annual and biennial lectures which are delivered by notable public figures who have made a significant contribution to the cultural and intellectual life in Australia.
This lecture commemorates Stephen Murray-Smith's contribution to Australian intellectual life, and promotes research and debate in the broad areas of his interest and influence.
Celebrating the State Library's Foundation Day, the Redmond Barry Lecture is given by leading cultural figures.
This event, held every two years, raises funds to support the work of the Library and promotes debate within the community about knowledge and culture.
This annual lecture honours the work of pioneering Melbourne bibliographer AB Foxcroft (1884-1938).
The Library is partnering with the Georges Mora Foundation to present this opportunity for an invited artist from Australia or overseas to discuss the broader themes underlying their work.
In this series of lectures, hear some of the Library's Fellows talk about their projects, how they have used the Library's collection and the results of their work.
