This weblog appears to be about the State Library of
Queensland. This blog interested me because at first sight it is well set out,
with a modern and imaginative design and has a variety of information already
on the front page. Since I am moving to Brisbane after my son has completed his
HSC, I would love to learn as much as I can about the Queensland State Library,
after seeing the magnificent NSW State Library.
The eye-catching links on the sidebar lead to Floodlines, Tea and Me, Asia Pacific Design Library, Australian Library of Art, Indigenous Voices and SLQ today. Interesting Topics on the front page included the passing of the first Aboriginal person elected to an Australian state parliament (Eric Deeral), the New State Library’s Indigenous Language WebPages, as well as a post on Family History Week. These topics caught my eye, as I realised that the Library appears to value the integration of the aboriginal community, encouraging viewers to learn more about Indigenous Australians.
The post concerning Vale
Eric Deeral http://blogs.slq.qld.gov.au/jol/2012/09/11/eric-deeral/ interested
me particularly since as a European, Aborigines are a new topic for me and I
love learning about different cultures, especially ones that I know nothing, or
very little about. It’s great to see that the State Library of Queensland has
implemented an Indigenous Languages Project, which is sure to spark the
interest of many people, who like me, want to learn more about Indigenous
Australians.
Hi Cornelia,
ReplyDeleteI agree that there is a lot of useful information on the blog. I can see that it would have a huge appeal to someone in Brisbane or who is considering moving to Brisbane.
