Can you please provide the link to that library Marie?

Hi Ruskie

If you haven't joined the state library - it is available too - and from how it is set up now, I think it will work with a BCC library card as well. I have so much plastic, I do get confused  Roll Eyes

Hi Trish and Ruskie,

The National Library lets you access all sorts of licenced databases once you have your card.

I found the easiest way in was via the home page http://www.nla.gov.au/  where they have a "Get A Library Card" link.

Card arrived within a week.  Cheesy  Cheesy

Hi Dee and all

Tis amazing how things change. I have been at the state library quite alot lately. Computers have well taken over - very few people in the book areas, but the computer areas are overflowing & the microfilm room is somewhat crowded at times also. That will probably change as more of the "stuff" on film and fiche goes online  Smiley

And it is one of the few areas where the government provides the services, with no charge to use same. I keep wondering when this will change!

Thank you Andy, Trish and Dee.

I have joined the Qld State Library, but haven't used the card or anything else yet. I'm sure there are many gems there for me yet to discover.  Grin

I'm going to check the links and join everything!

I've accessed the Times DA quite a bit, through the State Library!

Have sent off my request to the National Library.  They will probably now be overwhelmed with requests to join from Rootschatters!!  Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

Trish, don't you be giving the governments any ideas they shouldn't have, now!
