Archival Briefs
Several College Fellows in Adelaide are researching and writing a series of Archival Briefs, for uploading onto this section of the College website. Usually of between 1500 and 2500 words, the Archival Briefs are designed to show some of the richness of our College Archives, as well as providing useful resources for College members around Australia, and for other researchers into the history of education in Australia since the foundation of the College in 1959.
Current Researchers
Four College Fellows currently contribute to researching and writing Archival Briefs. Other South Australian-based members are invited to join the group. Contributions by College members who visit from interstate are encouraged.
