Field notesAustralian Museum Archives Collection

Make sure to read the new Tutorial. Some transcription methods have changed.

This expedition aims to transcribe the Australian Museum's register of letters received from 1927 - 1933. The transcription of these registers will enhance findability of specific letters in the Australian Museum's archival collection.

Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people should be aware that this expedition may contain images, and names of deceased persons. Some material in this expedition may contain content such as images, words, descriptions and terms which may be culturally sensitive and reflect an authors’ views, or those of the period in which the content was created, but may not be considered appropriate today.
