Challenges Cataloguing the John Ryan Comic Collection...

4/2/2016

There are so many things going around at Comicoz HQ these days, that I really have not had time to record any of it! Naturally, people who read this Blog in the future are going to be bitterly disappointed that nothing has been recorded. But, you know, sometimes it is not all about me! There are many quiet activities going on that are impacting on the future researching needs of our Australian comic book heritage, that (for once?) I feel I should highlight and acknowledge the wonderful work carried out by these researchers. Click here and take some time out to read and learn of the work being carried out by one in particular, Alison Carriage, at the National Library of Australia.
My thanks to Jan Rhoades for alerting me to this detailed Blog this morning.

Hi Nat,

Thank you for your kind words in regards to my work on the John Ryan Comic Collection here at the National Library of Australia. I left a detailed response against your comment on my blog. (This is so short as my other response was so long.)

Hope to run into you at ACAF, and have a look at your stall if you'll be having one on the Market Day!

Cheers,
Alison

Kind Regards,
Nat.
