Have a student who is interested in researching Australian History, and she mentioned a great website that has great research potential. It is here at the Trove website, run by the National Library of Australia, in Canberra.
Amongst the forms of information there are:
- Digitised newspapers and more … here
- Digitised Australian newspapers from 1803 to 1954 and The Australian Women’s Weekly to 1982 … here
- Journals, articles and data sets … here
- Books … here
- Pictures, photos, objects … here
- Music, sound and video … here
- Maps … here
- Diaries, letters, archives … here
- Archived websites (1996 – now) … here
- People and organisations … “Do yourself a favour” and click here
- Lists … here
Think it is well worth taking a look should you be interested. For a website usage peek take a look at our tutorial today. Trove allows you to become a member, and perhaps contribute work or edit documents.
If this was interesting you may be interested in this too.
