Lismore Library Fundraiser: This Week On What Are You Reading?

This Thursday during our popular What Are You Reading? Facebook Live segment, we’re going to hold a fundraising quiz to raise money for Lismore Library. As many of you know, Lismore was severely impacted by recent floods. The library – which is currently operating out of nearby Goonellabah – lost everything on the first floor, and will need major renovations and restocking. They also lost the mobile library, which is now operating from a car boot.

We’re going to have a fun quiz session, where we ask 20 questions to our readers. For the first correct answer to each question, we’ll donate $20. Better Reading will then match this. Help us hit $800 by joining in and answering the questions.

Better Reading will also be donating boxes of books to Lismore Library, and arranging for every book in the 2022 Top 100 to be donated, once that list is released.

If you’d like to make a donation yourself, we suggest you do so directly to the Library Flood Fund.
