Language Bibliographies
This page lists the Indigenous language bibliographies compiled by Library staff. The bibliographies are in pdf format. Click here if you would like more information about how these bibliographies were compiled.
These bibliographies contain the AIATSIS Library collections only. Audiovisual materials such as sound tapes etc are not included. However they can be searched on Mura® the AIATSIS catalogue which includes these materials.
Please note that searching Mura® using a language name in the language field will retrieve records for both the language and the People. This means that the records will also be about language, history, culture or a combination of both.
