Thanks to Pat Cullinan for emailing the following information:

“Reference our class journal, ‘Royal Military College, Duntroon 1969 – 1972‘, I spoke to the National Library’s ‘Ask a Librarian‘ service (phone 02-6262 1266) and after describing the Journal content and historical significance to her, she said that the Library would very much like a (hard) copy. They are particularly interested in material that has Australian content and the Journal fits this criteria perfectly. An ISBN publication number is not required. 

A hard copy could be hand delivered to the National Library of Australia (NLA) or posted to;

Legal Deposit

National Library of AustraliaParkes Place,

Canberra ACT 2600 

and / or

to send an electronic copy, a form that is on NLA website under Ned (National e–Deposit) can be filled out with the e-copy of the Journal attached.”

I think this is a great idea and would complement the copy that will be donated to the Duntroon Museum. As the book is now widely distributed I do not expect that there would be any issue with making it even more publicly available but if you do have concerns let me know.

There is an updated electronic version of the book on the website, which will be amended/edited as required. For example, there are better resolution photos in some cases – and in many the ‘original’ photo that was supplied (or not) dating from 1969 has been replaced with the mug shots most of us had taken on signing on the dotted line.
