Australian library collecting agreements
Australian libraries have a reputation for working collaboratively and
have established collecting agreements at regional, state and national levels
to reflect their shared collecting activities and responsibilities. We welcome
any information about other Australian library collecting agreements (formal or
informal) at the local, regional, national and/or international level -
