This is a demonstration of searching by colour across approximately 18,500 images from the National Library of Australia's photographic collection. You can pick a colour from the colour chart or fine tune your selection using the colour sliders. As so much of the collection is made up of black and white images, not all colours will bring back results.

The National Library hosts a program of events that highlight aspects of their collections. There are a wide variety of fields and interests covered by these talks. This page offers access to those talks if you missed them by offering podcasts that you can download and listen to.
SBDS will be a new discovery service focussed on Australia, Australians, and items found in Australian collecting institutions. It will provide a single point of access to resources currently discoverable via the Library's multiple discovery services, and to digitised material freely available online anywhere in the world.
