About the State Library of Queensland

Helen Brodie, A/Chief Executive Officer

The State Library is committed to the belief that an empowered and progressive society depends on creative thinking and the sharing of knowledge.

In fulfilling our vision, Enriching the lives of Queenslanders [new window Document in PDF format 353 kb], we are focused on three goals:

  • Expanding Queensland memory
  • Extending access and participation
  • Fostering learning and literacy

The recurrent themes of Enriching the lives of Queenslanders are renewal and reinvention, stemming from strategic partnerships and new technologies, and challenging the traditional delivery of information and knowledge to reach further into Queensland than ever before.

Our website is a dynamic tool linking the State Library to the world, and I encourage you to visit frequently and share in our vision.

I invite you to explore our website and in particular the About us pages.
