Fleas

Eric Heath, Dominion, 25 Nov 1977

In 1977 for the first time in its history the library had to close its doors during the session. An infestation of fleas in the basements required the fumigation of the building. Do you have any stories concerning ‘wildlife’ in the building?

Staff, 1995

Staff photo, 1995. From 1991 until 1995 the Parliamentary Library was in Bowen House as the library building was being refurbished. When the library prepared to move back this photo was taken of the staff. Do you remember these staff members from 1995 and can you add your own photos to our collection?
