National Simultaneous Storytime

National Simultaneous Storytime was a huge success, with over 100 children participating for the first time with real-time two-way web conferencing children in urban and regional libraries were able to see and hear each other live on the screens set up at each participating library.

Children in Lajamanu, Wadeye, Elliott, Mataranka, Milingimbi, Ramingining, Taminmin and Nhulunbuy Libraries heard Charlie King read ‘Little White Dogs Can’t Jump’ written by: Bruce Whatley and Rosie Smith live from the Northern Territory Library, Parliament House.

Minister for Arts & Museums, Gerry McCarthy also read to over 30 children at Tennant Creek Library as part of this national event, aimed at helping children to discover libraries, and to highlight the importance of books, reading and literacy for children. Video is also available at a higher quality. (172.5Mb)
