An unusual find
Besides the above periodicals, I found another listing, simply titled 'UFO RESEARCH AUSTRALIA.' This find consists of eight boxes of material. Besides a range of Australian and overseas periodicals, there are some interesting items. What are we to make of:
Confidential AFSRS1959 Onwards Part2
Confidential AFSRS1959 Onwards Part3
Correspondence 1973 - 1974 Part 1
Correspondence 1973 - 1974 Part 2
George Adamski File?
Who donated this material to the State Library of South Australia? There have always been rumours about the final resting place of some of the material which South Australian researcher Colin Norris left behind. Is this part of his extensive collection?
I know of no-one who has been into the State Library of South Australia, and examined these eight boxes of material. The following are the listed contents of these boxes. Naturally, I will be shortly heading of to the State Library of South Australia to take a look for myself.

My notes:
There seem discrepancies in some of these entries, in terms of the title of the periodicals.

Is anyone digitizing these? Is there a place to obtain the digital copies of publications you have collected. This is also a huge passion of mine. And am always looking to add to my library. Things like this are not quite as Easy to get physical copies of, so people digitizing them and uploading is very important current and future generations to have access to this date. I buy up everything I can and have spent a small fortune building a library of ufo (And related) items. But old case files and periodicals typically get donated to places like AFU and research library at the museum in roswell. So digital access to pdfs of these things is something that needs to be done
ReplyDeleteHi Jeff, Unfortunately, State Libraries do not seem to have any plans to digitze their holdings of Australian periodicals. AFU have digitized some Australian periodicals and they have a download site where you can download copies for yourself. Take a look at https://ufos-scientificresearch.blogspot.com.au/2017/08/download-digital-copies-of-tufoic.html and https://ufos-scientificresearch.blogspot.com.au/2017/08/some-ufoic-publications-now-digitised.html for my contributions.
