The Canberra & District Historical Society provides local history research facilities for members. A well-stocked reference library holds full sets of the Canberra Historical Journal and the Newsletter, as well as copies of books produced by members of the Society.
Research resources available to members also include collections of photographs, maps, and audio tapes of oral histories and lectures given at monthly meetings. The Society also has a valuable collection of newspaper clippings, filed under subject/ places/ people headings.
An online catalogue currently being developed lists items in these collections.
For those not able to undertake their own research, we offer an efficient research service.
Phone, mail or email your enquiry for a quote on the cost. The minimum cost for research is $16.50 (including GST) plus 20 cents per page for photocopying. Rapid turnaround is available for most research queries.
