Drug Action Week 20-26 June 2010

For Drug Action Week there is a display in the library with lots of drug information brochures and fun promotional products which customers may take home. There is also a Powerpoint presentation running on a loop on the big screen TV beside the display. It looks great and demonstrates the drug info @ your library website (http://www.druginfo.sl.nsw.gov.au/ ) and the resources that we hold in the library.

Did you know that the Australian Citizenship test resource book is available online? http://www.citizenship.gov.au/learn/cit_test/test_resource_book/
