Building our collections

Building our collections
The Library has an active acquisitions program to support its mission of maintaining and developing a comprehensive collection that documents Australian life and society. The Collection Development Policy provides the Library with an overall framework for the collecting of Australian and overseas materials.
Australian material
Legal deposit
Copies of all works published in Australia are received by the Library under legal deposit. Commonwealth, State and Territory Government publications are also received by deposit under a variety of special directives and circulars. Material issued in microform is normally purchased by the Library to supplement its collections in other material formats. Electronic formats, such as CD-ROM, are also acquired through voluntary deposit or purchased.
