This year's theme is Making a Difference. Reading Matters is a curated conference, attended by around 250 librarians, publishers, editors, writers and book professionals. We also have a day of events for students, aged 10.

We warmly welcome visitors from the United States. Melbourne is a great city to visit-?ntastic dining and cultural tourism, and very easy and safe to travel around in. Hey, we even have a tram service!
