Queensland State Archives Townsville Seminar: getting the most out of our online resources

On Thursday 28 July 2011 Queensland State Archives ran a free seminar at the Flinders Street library in Townsville. The seminar ran from 1:30pm to 4:30 pm and two presenters covered a range of content dealing with online resources including:

Indexes
Online Enquiry form
Exhibitions and Historical essays
Using the catalogues - ArchivesSearch and Image Queensland

Many of the forty-four (44) attendees enjoyed the opportunity to ask specific questions during the seminar and to have on the spot demonstrations of searching techniques. Lively discussions continued during afternoon tea and following the presentation.
