An Incomplete History of Community Radio
2SER's 46 Boxes of Stuff
46 unsorted boxes in a damp basement contained the “archives” of one of Australia’s least orthodox media institutions. Amazingly, from those daunting vestiges, Liz Giuffre and Demetrius Romeo wove a compelling book about 2SER and its colourful people. Also a window onto the world outside as it changes.

A Village Lost and Found - Scenes in our Village
This book is the perfect antidote to the stress of life in the 21st Century. It portrays the idyll of life in an 1850s village, "far from the sound of the trains whistle". The identity of the village was lost to the world for 150 years, and only by a miracle does this magical set of stereoscopic views survive.
