A series of photographs and accompanying text on re-visiting the Solomon Islands National Library. Installed in seven cabinets at the Auckland City Library. The photographs were taken in 2011. Built in Honiara in 1967, the building was designed by Stevenson’s father. In 2000, in the wake of the ethnic uprising in Honiara, the library closed, re-opening in 2003 with the assistance of the Australian Government through AusAID.
