Assyrian Community

Main

Collection SummaryThis project commenced in 2005 and has enabled the Library to build a working relationship with multicultural and school communities by celebrating their settlement through collecting and preserving photographs, oral histories and publications. Library staff and the community now have on-line access to information on many of its communities. This project has built networks for future collaboration.
Description
Once a year, one of our many migrant communities and one school community is invited to share their culture and history. Some of the communities that we engaged with were: The African Community, The Assyrian Community, The Croatian Community, The Italian Community, The Vietnamese Community.

Some of the school communities that we engaged with were: Bossley Park High School, Bonnyrigg High School, Cabramatta High School, Canley Vale High School, Fairfield High School, Patrician Brothers College, Fairfield

Collecting, preserving and showcasing these community histories is aimed at celebrating diversity and improving social understanding and inclusion.
