9. About this Publication
1. PROV Collection on PictureAustralia
PROV has joined PictureAustralia, the National Library of Australia's
picture sharing service. The website http://www.pictureaustralia.org
provides a single website to search the image collections of many major
Australian cultural institutions, directing site visitors back to the
website of each institution to view the images they search for.
PROV's online contributions include three pictures of Ned Kelly, approximately
7000 Public Transport Corporation (PTC) images and 2750 images from the
Melbourne 1956 Olympics. Another 11000 PTC images will be published to
the PictureAustralia website shortly.
2. Exhibitions
*People and Parliament: Landmark Decisions 1855-2006
You have only a few weeks left to see People and Parliament: Landmark
Decisions 1855-2006, the current free exhibition on display at the VAC.
Developed to coincide with the 150th anniversary of the establishment
of the Parliament of Victoria and the introduction of ‘responsible
government’ in the fledgling colony, People and Parliament explores
landmark decisions made by various Victorian governments over the past
century and a half.
Featuring original government records and historic items from PROV's
holdings and various other government agencies, People and Parliament:
Landmark Decisions 1855–2006 closes on 31 May 2006. Admission is
free. A glossy full-colour catalogue of the exhibition is available for
purchase for $5.00.
Free educational resources for primary and secondary students, together
with transcriptions of many of the records featured in the exhibition,
can be accessed online at http://www.prov.vic.gov.au/peopleparliament
*Town of North Melbourne
Following on from People and Parliament in the exhibition space at the
VAC will be PROV's next exhibition, Town of North Melbourne. This exhibition,
focusing on the late nineteenth century to the early 1900s, takes a snap
shot of the lives and stories of ordinary people living and working around
North Melbourne. The exhibition is essential viewing for anyone interested
in local history research.
Town of North Melbourne is free of charge to visit. It will be available
to view from 12 June to 27 2006 at the VAC.
*Touring Exhibitions
PROV has a number of touring exhibitions and displays which are loaned
out free of charge to cultural, historical and educational institutions,
libraries and various other organisations throughout Victoria.
While these exhibitions are of varying themes, they all are based on
the stories, people and topics gleaned from records held in PROV's custody.
To view the PROV calendar for touring exhibitions, visit: http://www.prov.vic.gov.au/online/default.asp#touring
*Online Exhibitions Update-'Bigamy, Theft and Murder: The Extraordinary
Tale of Fredrick Bailey Deeming'
Bigamy, Theft and Murder: The Extraordinary Tale of Frederick Bailey Deeming
is not only one of PROV’s most popular online exhibitions, it is
also one of its most enduring. The time has come to refresh the look and
layout of the online exhibition, while retaining the essential elements
of the tale that has made it such a favourite.
Anyone interested in suggesting changes or possibilities for including
new material from archives or other collections, particularly any photographs
or illustrations that may illuminate the Deeming story, should contact
Sebastian Gurciullo via email at sebastian.gurciullo@dvc.vic.gov.au
or by phone on (03) 9348 5626.
