AMS045, the Australian Museum Register of General Files, is a bound manuscript register documenting correspondence files of the Australian Museum between the years 1943-1968.

This expedition focuses on transcribing a portion of records created between 1943 to 1949. The registers contain information about historical correspondence, card references, and filing notations. The transcription of these registers will enhance findability of specific letters and files in the Australian Museum's archival collection.

This expedition is part of the Australian Museum's Collection Enhancement Project (CEP). The CEP will result in new levels of access to the AM’s diverse collections, making digital images and meta data easily accessible to First Nations communities, scientists, researchers, students and individuals from Australia and abroad.
