How State Records SA can help you
Episode description
State Records of South Australia was the country's first service of its kind when it was established more than 100 years ago in 1919.
State Records SA has an Aboriginal Reference Group and specific Aboriginal access services, which include Aboriginal access officers.
These services can help you find your Aboriginal family history through culturally sensitive archival records. They can specifically assist members of the Stolen Generations in identifying and becoming reunited with members of their families. They also help researchers find information and gain access to the correct records for their needs.
“We support the spirit of Reconciliation and the recognition of individuals’ right of access to their own personal information” - State Records SA
Today, AW is speaking with Senior Aboriginal Access Officer Tara Collier and Senior Reference Archivist Nick Miller about their work and how they can help you discover more about your own family history.
