Queensland Heritage Register Fellowship

The Queensland Heritage Register is a list of places that have state cultural heritage significance. Entry in the Queensland Heritage Register means a place is of importance to the people of Queensland and enriches our understanding of the state’s history.

The places entered in the Queensland Heritage Register are diverse, representing many aspects of the state’s history, and include:

• buildings
• parks and gardens
• recreational venues and sporting arenas
• landscapes
• precincts
• monuments and memorials
• cemeteries
• homestead complexes
• industrial sites
• institutions
• bridges and roads
• lighthouses
• natural features and trees

The Queensland Heritage Register Fellowship supports research using the John Oxley Library and State Library collections to unearth and generate new knowledge about places entered on the Queensland Heritage Register, particularly places or aspects of Queensland's history that are less well-known or recognised.

The fellowship recipient will receive a stipend of $20,000, a personal workspace within the Neil Roberts Research Lounge for 12 months and premium access to State Library’s extensive collections and library staff expertise.
