How Do I Start My Research?On This Page
What is a Finding Aid?A Finding Aid is a tool that helps to identify records that might be relevant to your research. The find aids available in the Research Centres were produced by staff and volunteers over many years. They include guides to Aboriginal History and Family History, indexes, series lists, and itemised special lists . Finding aids are available in hard copy format at the Research Centres. We are continuing to add electronic versions of our finding aids to the range available online through ArchivesSearch. Related Information: 
ArchivesSearchState Records' catalogue and on-line searching tool is called ArchivesSearch. Its searching functions help you to identify records in the State Records collection that are relevant to your research. Please note that only a fraction of the special lists and indexes have been entered into ArchivesSearch, and searching to unit and item level may be limited. None of the records in the State Records collection are digitised and therefore there are no records available online. More information on ArchivesSearch and archival control systems can be found at the links below. Related Information:
