The Library seeks to build a significant and sustainable philanthropic revenue stream to digitise the most important, impactful and unique areas of its collection, and to make them accessible to Australians everywhere through Trove. The Treasured Voices campaign will ensure a truly national library that removes geographical, economic and other barriers, and connects all Australians with their stories.
The Australian Government is supporting this ambition by providing $10 million over four years starting from 2019–20 to leverage philanthropic contributions.
Challenges to the Library’s aim to connect with many communities include:
• increasing community expectations about the volume of collection material that can be delivered online and free of charge
