Journals, maps, books, manuscripts, microfilm, pictures and other media related artifacts are the chief collections of the National Library of Australia. Apart from housing the collections in this library, some of the materials are stored at Hume Annexe and other such warehouses.
Presently the director of the National Library of Australia is Jan Fullerton. In the recent times, some of the collections of the National Library of Australia have been digitalized. This facilitates the users to reach out to the useful information directly through the internet. This huge structure comprises several reading rooms and other collections. The main reading room is situated on the ground floor.
The Australian National Bibliographic Database is housed in this renowned National Library of Australia; where access can be obtained only through the Libraries Australia Search Service. Especially for the Australian publishers, this library provides ISSNs, ISMNs and Cataloguing-in-Publication details.
