Hidden Treasures of the Mitchell Library
Hidden Treasures of the Mitchell Library: Sydney Periodicals, 1895-1930
An Australian Book History and Print Culture Project
  • Methodology

    The 62 publications that proved suitable for inclusion in this project were chosen from an initial list of 220 magazines. This initial list was itself constructed by excluding daily, bi-weekly, and annual publications from consideration, leaving a list of 220 weekly, fortnightly, monthly and quarterly publications likely to be magazines. At least 40 of these periodicals could be classified as women’s magazines, including political, social, and home-centred. At least 70 were religious, mission, and charity magazines. Some 45 could be considered arts, theatre, or lifestyle magazines.

    We would welcome receiving further information about these magazines. Please contact info-austlit@austlit.edu.au to participate in the further development of this dataset.
