No more meaningful research at the National Library on weekends

national library

THE National Library has announced they’ll be closing their stacks on weekends despite Saturdays being their busiest day.

While researchers can still pre-order books they know they’ll want to access it means any follow up will have to wait a week in contrast to the internet or even a well run mail order system.

The Trove system will to some extend plug the gap, but at this time only promises “some” text.
