Online Exhibitions  

These online exhibitions are part of the AIATSIS Library's Digitisation Program.

The AIATSIS Library has recognised the need to create a digital collection. The primary aim of the program is creating, managing and delivering electronic information resources and services to clients via the AIATSIS website and the Library's catalogue (Mura). The focus of the program is to increase client awareness of the Library's collections and their access to it.
