Monash is the first Australian University to partner with the BHL - the world’s largest open access repository for biodiversity literature. Among the first items Monash has shared with the BHL are its unique volumes of Flora Australiensis.

An early book about native Australian plants, Special Collections copy contains beautiful illustrations and notes not found in the original edition.

Congratulations to the teams from both Monash and the BHL on this wonderful new initiative!

Anzac Cookies for the 2023 great rare books bake off against Penn State University. Turned out very large and a darker color than usual but ended up tasting fine. Go Monash! #BakeMonash #thegreatrarebooksbakeoff

Such a disappointing result for libraries, and digital lending . But lets throw our weight behind the appeal!

We will appeal.

@HollyJMengel Hi Holly, . You can find the ANZAC biscuit recipe I use here. https://t.co/lvOSISQ5ND It is from the annual Penn state and Monash university rare books bake off competition. Hint triple the amount of treacle in recipe.😉
