Acknowledging the National Library of Australia as the source and citing rare and unique material accurately

The National Library holds a rich and diverse range of library materials on the Pacific region, New Zealand and Papua New Guinea.

The National Library has been selectively collecting Australian printed ephemera since the early 1960s so we can tell the story of Australian life, culture, and major events and issues.

Our Manuscripts collections are wide ranging and provide rich evidence of the lives and activities of Australians who have shaped our society.
