How did Victoria's biggest rivalry end up in the Library? Have you ever wondered what is kept in the Library’s hidden catacombs and was there really a ‘shusher’ in the Dome?
Hidden Histories is your key to unlock State Library Victoria’s best-kept secrets. On this exclusive tour, gain access to the Library before the doors open to the public. Wander through the magnificent heritage spaces, hear the stories from the Library’s past that have shaped Melbourne and head back in time as you explore the treasure trove of card catalogues.
