Scholar Talks showcase the work of the Library's Fellows and other researchers. Each presentation is an opportunity for researchers to share their research experiences and exchange ideas.
Each fortnight, Travis De Vries hosts a special Talking Deadly series with artists whose work responds to the 250th anniversary of Cook’s arrival in Kamay (Botany Bay) and to Cook’s legacy from a First Nations perspective.
Crime stories (crime fiction and true crime) often tell tales of great trauma, but the usually clear resolutions to even the most dreadful crimes give us a sense of hope.
From the rainforests of Cape York to the dusty plains of western NSW, Rhett and Ella have been travelling the country to capture fresh perspectives on the summer bushfires, the Black Lives Matter movement and the Closing the Gap strategy.
This presentation by Louise Anemaat, considers the context of the Endeavour voyage, the daily logbook written in Cook’s hand, and the three official copies, including one held by the Library.
