If you'd like to view the Austin publications (I think of them as retro Pulse News!) just pop into the library and we'll set you up
Trove only goes up to the 50s, but the State Library has an online newspaper database which covers the Age and SMH from 1831-2000 - the Australian Newspaper Collection. You can join the State Library to access it from home. find.slv.vic.gov.au/permalin…
Hi Andrew! In the Library we have a few historic Austin news periodicals - 'The Austin Hospital Reporter', 'Austopics' and 'This Week Today'. They're a wealth of information and often cover incidents like that - only catch is they're not digitised
This article has some great insights into what has changed in the social media landscape thesiswhisperer.com/2023/07/…
Right now, our two biggest tools for engagement are our email newsletter (Mailchimp), and our organisation's intranet homepage.
We are taking a break from Twitter. But you can still keep up to date with library events and the latest research with the Austin Library Bulletin austin.org.au/library-bullet…
