The goal of the AMC was to support research of multicultural groups with connections to Australia, with an emphasis on diasporic writers, artists, and interdisciplinary creatives living in Australia at the time, forming ‘the first comprehensive collection of multicultural literature in Australia’ (Gunew, Post 133). The AMC was maintained for approximately ten years via the Australian Multicultural Bicentennial Foundation. The intention was for the archive to be continually updated; however, after Gunew left Australia for Canada in the early twenty-first century, engagement with the archive dwindled, to the extent that, when Gunew attempted to donate books from her personal collection upon her retirement, she was unable to locate its whereabouts.'
