Event description

Lots of discoveries are made inside archival boxes. But have you ever wondered how community donations make their way into our collections? Or how our archives are made available to researchers?

If you answered yes, then you might be interested in this very special behind-the-scenes peek into the work of our Archival Team.

Join Dr Clare Parker as she details how the State Library acquires, organises, describes, and preserves our diverse collection of South Australian historical records, ensuring they are accessible for all to read, see and discover now and into the future.

This talk is sure to lift the lid and get you thinking outside the box.
