NAA receives $67m to digitalise old records

July 7, 2021 by InfoGovANZ

Almost 300,000 records of Australian history including radio recordings of former prime minister John Curtin and a petition to King George V for Indigenous representation in Federal Parliament will be saved after a $67.7 million funding injection into the National Archives. The Tune Review, released in March this year said immediate action was needed to preserve deteriorating records in paper-based form, as well as magnetic tape audiovisual records, photos and film, to ensure they weren’t lost forever. Cybersecurity was also underscored as an urgent priority, with the collection of government records otherwise vulnerable to obsolescence, attack, compromise or loss.
