AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'I distinctly remember my first visit to the Australian Lesbian and Gay Archives (ALGA) in 2014. I had long been an ALGA follower on Facebook and knew members of its executive committee. Yet I was a little nervous that first visit because I was only beginning my foray into the field of LGBTI history. Like so many other academics starting new projects, I felt almost like a phony, moving into well-established turf occupied by other historians – professional, academic and those independent scholars who research out of sheer passion.' (Introduction)

    'The AHA has in recent times engaged with three reviews that will be vital in shaping future historical research. These are: the ‘Function and Efficiency’ Tune Review of the National Archives of Australia (NAA); the Australian and New Zealand Standard Research Classifications Review (ANZSRCR); and the Future Humanities Workforce Project (FHWP) run through the Australian Academy of Humanities (AAH). These reviews are pertinent for all historians working in Australia and cover different aspects of our work. I wish to discuss them briefly in turn and the implications of each for how we undertake historical research.' (Joy Damousi: From the President)
