John Forbes in the Archive

(Status : Public)
Coordinated by Duncan Hose
  • Acknowledgements

    Thanks to Simon Farley, the trustees and board of the Fryer Library Fellowship and the Fryer Librarians, firstly for the opportunity and resources to spend time with the Forbes archive, then for their support and enthusiasm throughout the duration of my time as the 2017 Fryer Library Fellow.

    I would like to thank Mick Forbes on behalf of the John Forbes Estate for his generous permission to reproduce the materials included here from the John Forbes Papers (UQFL 148), and for his humour and patience in responding to queries and requests.

    Over the period of the Fellowship I have continually encountered the Ethos of the Fryer Library through the keepers of the archive, the librarians, and in their vocations I have found them impeccable in their manner, their foresight, their enthusiasm and their stealthy efficiency.

    For casual brilliance I would like to thank Anna Johnson, Greg Taylor, Lilibelle Lemonade Eupene-Gordon, Martin Duwell, Michael Farrell, Tim Wright, Ken Bolton, Melody Paloma and Ruth Blair.

    Thanks to the resident geniis of AustLit, Director Kerry Kilner and Dr. Catriona Mills.
