Research aids.

[cobber]

For anybody interested in researching just about anything........ the National Library of Australia have recently developed new on-line search facilities that are pretty good and easy to use..... once you get the gist of it.

This one allows you to search in books, journals, magazines, pictures, Australian newspapers, diaries, letters, maps, music, sound, people and organisations........... impressive wot ?

Hi VVers
We have carried out a lot of our research on the Olympic and other fibreglass vans and other marques as well at the Nat. Lib. over the recent years and find it great. The last visit was for three days a very time consuming activity, but there info in abundance,once you know where to look and request the documents. We were getting them by the trolley load, so you can see where the hours go.
Thanks for the above cobber.
Cheers boblor
