| Abstract |
This review of the early history of South Australia's hospital libraries describes the social, educational and administrative factors that produced an unprecedented growth in the number and role of libraries in the state's public hospitals between 1956 and 1980. It also identifies some of the individuals who played a leading part in the development of hospital libraries during this period.
