New online programs for lifelong learning
The National Library of Australia has long been a leader in sharing digital collections, in partnership with hundreds of other organisations, through our digital platform, Trove.
With millions of pages of content, and millions of visitors annually, Trove is unmatched as a free online resource.
Now, thanks to Opalgate Foundation, we will draw on these digital collections to offer new online programs for lifelong learning.
With the Foundation’s support, we will create a new lifelong learning space on the National Library website.
Drawing on our rich collections – including physical, digital, and oral history collections – we will create a range of new online educational content for adults, focused on Australian culture and history in all its diversity and richness.
This new online education content will begin to appear on the National Library website in late 2024.
Opalgate Foundation are already generously supporting a range of Fellowships and Scholarships at the Library, in memory of Cheng King Law.
This new project brings the Foundation’s overall commitment to the Library to over $1 million, and we are enormously grateful to Opalgate Foundation for their generous support.
