Premier launches 150th Anniversary Program
26 February 2004
The Victorian Premier, the Hon. Steve Bracks MP, formally launched the State Library's 150th Anniversary Program on Tuesday 26 February 2004.
The occasion allowed for a launch within a launch: Treasures of the State Library of Victoria (Focus Publishing) was published to celebrate the Library's 150th anniversary.
And by a miracle of genetic science and an impressive display of the embalmer's art, the Premier was joined at the launch by Sir Redmond Barry, colonial visionary and co-founder of the Library.
