What Have UNE’s Collections Ever Done for Us?

Synopsis

UNE has been called the Smithsonian of the New England, and its extensive collections referred to as one of Armidale’s best kept secrets.  At times, those extensive collections have been something of a mystery even to staff and students. Do you know what collections UNE has and what they can offer for your teaching and research? In this presentation we examine some innovative uses to which UNE’s existing collections and digital technologies are being put in our teaching and discuss the emerging opportunities for teachers and researchers at UNE to take advantage of the support our collections and digital platforms can provide for distance education, online research, and community engagement.
