Home - Trove - 5 views

  •  
    Trove is a discovery experience focused on Australia and Australians. It supplements what search engines provide. If you are researching in the fields of the social sciences, literature, local or family history, or need inspiration for your school assignment, then this is the tool for you. It is the most amazing FREE site and I use it to find so many things "Australian".

    Loved that showing this to my students meant I could show them that their small town of Kyabram is mentioned in National Library sources.
