About the Local Studies working group
The local studies working group has two meetings a year. One in Sydney and one in another part of NSW. These meetings are hybrid. To host a meeting you need to be able provide good onsite and online facilities. An example set up (which worked very well) is shown in the photograph below which is the set up for the Shellharbour City Library and online meeting. Note the large screen, separate laptop, webcam on tripod, and separate (round) microphone for sound for the online participants.
