Thank you and happy holiday reading
Happy summer holidays and festive season to all our readers!
The Dictionary team wishes you all a pleasant holiday season and a happy New Year. We have had over 200,000 unique visitors during the year and you have been one of them! We are looking forward to an exciting 2014.
To finish the year we thought we would share some of our favourite reading from 2013 and new books by Dictionary authors and colleagues published this year.
But first, thank you to our major government partner, the City of Sydney, our community partners including the team at 2SER, our Chair and board members, volunteers, supporters, authors, multimedia contributors and readers. You make the Dictionary the special resource that it is.
