State Library Creative Tips and Tricks
A weekly Tech series to learn tips and tricks to make creative videos, using collage, cinemagraph, panorama, audio editing and digital collage using the 200,000 collection of copyright free images.
Also the Bibliotherapy podcasts: What is bibliotherapy? Put simply, the word ‘bibliotherapy’ is derived from the Greek words for book, biblio and healing, therapeia. But in a more expansive sense, the word describes an age-old practice of book therapy. Where the healing power of literature nourishes and comforts us during challenging times. When poems and stories, read aloud, open a space for us to dwell quietly away from the noise outside.
