General notes:
Copyright - North Melbourne LibraryTechnical Services back office, North Melbourne Library, c 1980sA somewhat claustrophobic nook in the staff room office area, which is now the local history room. A 1974 Adler electric 21d typewriter can be seen, with large print books primarily from a publisher called Ulverscroft Publications, one of the world's leading publishers of large print books. They are placed on a well-used book-sorting trolley labelled "Extension Services". The nook is surrounded by a mountainous skyline of books, catalogue drawers and shelves. Above the typewriter, a Marbletick game is visible on top of a red crate. This game is considered a learning tool for children 3+ years in developing fine motor skills and is still sold in toy stores today. (Source: https://discounttoyco.com.au/marbletick-game/)
