We were very lucky to have visited the famous room of the Scottish hotel where J.K. Rowling finished Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows in 2007. Thanks to Katy Reilly, PR of The Balmoral who allowed us to set foot in one of the Mecca for the Harry Potter fans, we were able to see in first person the room where J.K. Rowling wrote some chapters of the seventh book of the Harry Potter series.

At the opposite side of the room door, on the wall of North Bridge, there is a small desk holding the seven Harry Potter books, and just a meter away, facing south, the chair and desk where J.K. Rowling wrote, with her notebook, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.

The room also has a frame including the cover of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows and a photo of the signature Rowling left in the marble bust, in case you are there and you do not know why all the references to the book of the wizard boy.

I love how the filmmakers adapted the books. They retained the magic and brought the wizarding world to life. Previously, I have looked how the films improved and let down the books, and now I am going to focus on one of the best couples of the series: Ron and Hermione. They had several fantastic scenes in the movies, but they left out or changed some of their best book episodes. Below are the five Ron and Hermione moments I wish had been kept as how they were portrayed in the books.

A mysterious book previously owned by the Half-Blood Prince comes into Harry's hands early on during his Potions class and changes the course of his school year by giving him a reputation for Potions brilliance that baffles everyone. Harry quickly grows to depend on the information he gets from the Half-Blood Prince's book and uses some of his spells outside of class, much to Hermione's displeasure.

The 1998 Sydney to Hobart Yacht Race was marred by tragedy when, during an exceptionally strong storm (which had similar strength winds to a lower-category hurricane), five boats sank and six people died. Of the 115 boats that started, only 44 made it to Hobart. As a result, the crew eligibility rules were tightened, requiring a higher minimum age and experience. G. Bruce Knecht wrote a book about this race, The Proving Ground.[12] A coronial enquiry into the race was critical of both the race management at the time and the Bureau of Meteorology.[13]

By the November 2007 race entry deadline, 90 yachts had nominated for entry including four 90-foot maxis, three of them wanting to prevent Wild Oats XI creating history and winning three line honours titles in a row. A little over a week prior to the race, New Zealand maxi Maximus withdrew after cracking its keel. Three-time and 2006 handicap winner, Love & War, was not one of the applications for entry and may have raced her last Sydney to Hobart Yacht Race in 2006. Wild Oats XI went on to create history by winning its third consecutive line honours title and becoming only the second yacht to do so.[10] Rosebud (USA) won the race on corrected time. John Walker became the oldest skipper in the history of the race at age 85 and Phillip's Foote Witchdoctor bettered its own record and set a mark of 27 races as the most by a yacht.[10]

On 3 November 2008 at the close of entries, 113 yachts had nominated for entry with only one other 90-foot maxi (Skandia) to challenge Wild Oats XI and stop it creating history by winning four consecutive line honours titles and becoming the only yacht to do so. Wild Oats XI achieved this and Bob Steel won his second Tattersall Cup with Quest, the second yacht with the same name to win the handicap title.[10][19]

The 2020 race was cancelled due to an outbreak of COVID-19 in Sydney's north. The Cruising Yacht Club said it was "unrealistic" to proceed with the race after the Tasmanian government declared Greater Sydney a "medium risk" zone, requiring all participants to quarantine for 14 days on arrival in Tasmania. It was the first time the race was not conducted in its 76-year history.[20]

Over the centuries the Library has built up impressive collections of rare books by purchase, bequest, gift and through the Copyright Act. A number of the larger collections have been kept together and named, including some which were once private collections (as in the case of the Royal Library, the Acton Library and Sandars) and some which were once in institutional ownership (Ely and Peterborough Cathedrals, Bury School Library and the Royal Commonwealth Society). Information on these named collections may be found below. The reference collection on the open shelves in the Rare Books Reading Room can be accessed by subject and by browsing the classification scheme.

The library of Lord Acton, Regius Professor of Modern History 1895-1902, presented to the Library in 1902 by Lord Morley.

For further information on this collection, see the Acton Library

A collection formed initially in the early 20th century from materials already held in the library. Books of an erotic or sexual nature which were believed to be potentially corrupting to students were moved into Arc, giving an interesting reflection of contemporary morals; they include a dictionary of slang, textbooks on female sexual health, and the first edition of Radclyffe Hall's The well of loneliness. The class is now used for books received under legal deposit which are considered to be unusually offensive (generally pictorial works), and for books which have been withdrawn by the publishers for various reasons (they include books which are the subject of legal proceedings, and scientific textbooks where misprints have led to unsafe information being published). Volumes in Arc are available for consultation in the Rare Books Reading Room, with the exception of books with the running number 400 and above (in the form Arc.a.95.401), used for those books withdrawn by their publishers which consequently may not be fetched.
