What will research collections be like in 2121? Digital Preservation and the University Library
The University Library looks after many wonderful and unique collections of manuscripts and archives. These collections may contain correspondence, diaries and notebooks, all of which provide a valuable insight into notable researchers’ experience and approach. We know that in 2021 much of this work now happens digitally. 16 Apr Since 2014, the Adelaide University Football Club and the Adelaide University Cricket Club have been researching their players who served in the Great War (1914 - 1918). Today, in partnership with the AUFC/AUCC WWI Memorial Committee, we launch the profiles of twenty Fallen WWI Anzacs.
