Specific Materials Other forms of publication, not all of which can be collected comprehensively, require special mention. Of these, some can be distinguished by form and some by content, while others, such as ephemera, can be distinguished by both. Artists' books Artists' books, or books produced by an artist who is responsible for all aspects of the work, are acquired on a selective basis to give a representative idea of the variety of such work being produced at any one period.
Priority is given to Victorian productions or work by Victorian artists.
Church records Synod or meeting records of the governing bodies for all religions and denominations of Victorian churches are sought. Company material Company in-house publications and records are acquired selectively. Published annual reports of Victorian companies are acquired comprehensively under legal deposit. Other annual reports are acquired selectively. Collections of prospectuses are maintained by the Australian Stock Exchange and the Australian Securities Commission.
