Remarks: This composite database is comprised of a number of smaller indexes which have been compiled over a long period of time by staff working in the Australian History & Literature area of the State Library of Victoria. Pre-dating computerised databases, these indexes were originally compiled on cards. Some of these card indexes have subsequently been published on microfiche by the Library. Since 1997 records have been entered directly online and there are ongoing projects to retrospectively add information from the earlier card indexes. You will also find references to unpublished files, such as: Local History; Biography, Subject; Family history letters; and Shipping letters files. These files contain items such as answers to previous enquiries and ephemeral material such as leaflets and pamphlets. The amount of information varies from one or two lines to several pages. There are also references to items containing newspaper cuttings on various topics. These unpublished items are only available at the State Library of Victoria.
