'Part of daily life in the mid-twentieth century, circulating libraries have left charmed traces.

'If you walked down a suburban Sydney street in the 1930s or 1940's it's likely you would have passed a small privately run library. Hundreds of 'circulating' or subscription libraries operated from the early twentieth century to the 1960s.'
