Considering where you come from, that is a cracking email address. I would like to visit Oberon, New South Wales, preferably on a midsummer night, (how’s the donkey population?) as it might be cold in winter, that high above sea level. It looks to be approximately the same distance from Sydney as Wigtown is from Gullane, and every bit as worthy of a visit. Keep working on your local library. If that doesn’t work, have you ever thought of setting up a library of your own, with some like-minded friends? Set up a book group, build up a small fund, draw up a reading list, buy the books on-line, and circulate them. QJ titles won’t be a problem; Hachette Australia should be able to advise you, but if they can’t, I promise that  www.campbellreadbooks.com will.
