Trove

There is now a new way to search Libraries Australia. The new interface - called Trove - allows you to search not only the collections of Australian Libraries but also full text Australian newspapers from 1803 - 1954, images and photos, copies of selected Australian websites, people and organisations and more.

You can still search Libraries Australia's subscription service, but you will need to login with the CGD account Username and password (located in the Information Desk Folder at the Info Desks).
