Level 4 at State Library is home to our heritage and extraordinary collections.
In the Philip Bacon Heritage Gallery you will find the exhibition Extraordinary stories featuring a rotating selection of stories about ordinary Queenslanders whose lives were anything but. These are stories worth telling, stories worth hearing, stories worth collecting, drawn from State Library's collections to tell us more about Queensland and the lives lived here.
Join one of our specialist curators to discover the unknown stories and hidden gems of State Library's collections.
