Let’s take a look back at what has been a busy year at the Library.

Unfortunately, architectural plans have not commonly been kept as archives. This is particularly the case for commercial and residential buildings. However, there are a number of resources which you can try.

Dr Wesley Lim presented a lecture on his 2023 National Library Fellowship research into the papers of dancer and choreographer Gertrud Bodenwieser.

Explore early women writers in the Library's rare books collections up to the year 1700.

Our website, social media and email channels are a space where we can help people learn about, discuss and engage with the National Library and Trove’s collections, services and activities.

See what's happening at the Library this summer, including exhibitions, tours and more.
