There are more than 10,000 years’ worth of out-of-copyright microfilmed newspapers from 71 Victorian municipalities yet to be digitised to Trove. Sign the petition to the Victorian government to increase funding. https://t.co/9zmYeNXTel

Summer reading sorted: the 2020 edition of Provenance is packed with some terrific new research straight from the archives at @PRO_Vic. Read about community activism in the 1970s, a 74-year-old murder case, a mysterious architect and a gold-rush era map.

“Detention is where you are lost. There is no aim for you. Freedom is a walk away but you can’t reach it.

It’s difficult to explain, difficult to keep doing the same things everyday.

Detention is racism.

It’s been 7 yrs of deliberate harm.” @Farhad70685996

We have lost a lot of friends to detention.

We cannot lose anymore friends.

It’s too much for us.

Wondering what is current advice on physical displaying / exhibition of historical photographs (1980s and forward) of 4yr old children? Relates to history of a kindergarten. Thanks

I hate that we have to do this, but I’m pleased to share the @PHAVicTas statement on the planned restructure of university fees. This is a personal, professional and societal issue.
