{{Block indent|The collection includes a diverse range of items and formats, such as letters, files, photographs, maps, posters, film, video and e-records. From local school records to royal commissions, divorce papers to shipping registers, criminal trials to adoption records, the collection tracks through time the myriad interconnections between public agencies and private lives. The collection is one of the most complete records of the process of colonisation, and includes a number of items inscribed on the UNESCO Memory of the World Register.}} | |||
