Pacific Collections at the ANU holding resources for the study ofenvironmental transformation in the PacificThe School of Pacific Studies, established in 1948, was one of the four foundingResearch Schools of the Australian National University. The University’s longstanding interest in the study of Pacific islands countries and territories is reflectedby the strength of the Pacific resources held in its libraries and archives. The Pacificcollections have been built up to serve the research interests of Pacific scholars andstudents.THE ANU LIBRARY has been collecting Pacific research, study andteaching materials since the establishment of the University. It is a major resource inAustralia and the region for Pacific Islands studies and research. The Library’scollection focuses on the history and society of all Pacific island countries andterritories, although there is a distinct emphasis on Papua New Guinea andMelanesia in particular.The ANU Library has always (within its budget constraints) sought to keepup to date with major international trends in Pacific books, journals and e-resources.Most of the Library’s Pacific resources are housed in the Menzies andChifley Buildings. Further Pacific research and teaching resources are held in all theother libraries of the Australian National University, namely: Sciences (Hancock),Law, Art and Music.The Hallstrom Pacific Collection is now held at the ANU Library. It wasthe special collection of the Library of the Australian School of PacificAdministration (ASOPA). In 1997 it was donated to the National Library ofAustralia and given on loan to the University of New South Wales Library for tenyears. In 2007 the Hallstrom Pacific Collection was transferred into the hands of theANU Library.This valuable collection has its origins in 1948 when Sir Edward Hallstromdonated 10,000 to the Commonwealth Government to acquire books and otherlibrary materials for a Pacific affairs and colonial administration library, whichbecame part of the ASOPA Library at Mosman, NSW. The collection numbers over1,600 items, mainly books, some dating from the 17th Century, on Pacific, Asian andAustralian colonial administration, history, exploration, anthropology and otherrelated subject areas. Many of the books are considered rare. A few archival papersand some Pacific islands photograph albums are held in the Collection. ThisCollection consolidates the extensive Pacific resources now available at the ANU.

Beattie, in his album, Torres,Santa Cruz, Reef Islands, Malaita – Solomon Islands, in the Hallstrom Pacific Collection.Papua New Guinea Patrol Reports [microform] consists of more than30,000 patrol reports, filmed by the PNG National Archives in 1989-1990 incollaboration with the Melanesian Studies Resource Center. The microfiche arearranged in eleven districts with multiple sub-district sets; and microfiches areaccompanied by printed guides. There is an online guide at ter/ .The reports from government patrols are a major source of primaryinformation on the pre-independence (before 1976) era. Patrol officers and otherofficials wrote detailed documents reporting on all aspects of the work carried out bythe patrols. Therefore, patrol reports give first hand accounts on many topics, fromfirst contact with remote Highland villages, to census counts, tax collection, healthcare, administration of justice, plantations, missionaries, anthropologicaldescriptions, tribal warfare, languages, etc.2

Resources for the Study of Environmental Transformation in the PacificTHE PACIFIC RESEARCH ARCHIVES (PRA), established in 2007, islocated within the ANU Archives Program in the Menzies Building. It is collectingan important body of Pacific islands unpublished and published research records andalso provides an administrative umbrella for industrial, trade and labour archivesrelating to the Pacific islands collected by the Noel Butlin Archives Centre (thePRA’s sister organization in the ANU Archives Program). A number of finding aidswhich guide researchers using the collection have been produced.Personal collections at the PRA.

Resources for the Study of Environmental Transformation in the PacificTHE PACIFIC MANUSCRIPT BUREAU (PMB) located in the Coombsbuilding, carries out document preservation reformatting projects throughout thePacific Islands. The Pacific Manuscript Bureau is a joint copying project directedand funded by a consortium of nine specialist Pacific research libraries.2The PMB is based in the College of Asia and the Pacific (CAP). Since itwas established in 1968, the PMB has produced more than 4,000 reels ofpreservation microfilm making it the most extensive collection of non-governmentprimary documentation on the Pacific Islands available to researchers. Thedocuments on PMB microfilms include: archives of Christian missions andchurches, whaling, shipping, plantations, traders and other businesses, trade unionsand NGOs, political parties and colonial administrations and judiciaries; togetherwith personal records of civil administrators, politicians, missionaries, explorers andtravellers, planters, traders, beachcombers and scientists. Printed documentsmicrofilmed by the PMB include mission journals, colonial administrationnewsletters, independent Pacific Island newspapers and rare scientific serials. Theextensive topics include: island cultures, climate, land ownership, languages,religions, ethnography, anthropology, social and constitutional development,education, industries, agriculture, war and militarisation, tourism, transport,communications, politics and civil administration.In addition to making preservation microfilm, the PMB also producesdigitally reformatted copies of audio recordings and photographs, and (with thepermission of the owners of the original records) scans microfilm to digital (PDF)format on demand. The PMB has published complete catalogues and indexes, anddetailed listings of the documents. The PMB microfilms are accessible on-line fromthe PMB website at http://asiapacific.anu.edu.au/pambu/.From time to time the PMB undertakes collaborative projects with recordkeepers in the Islands and elsewhere. For example, in the 1980s John Cumpstonmade two expeditions to museums and libraries in New England microfilmingseveral thousand log books of Yankee whaleships. Dr Cumpston produced a vastbody of records useful for documenting the impact of 19th Century whaling in the2They are the National Library of Australia, ANU Library, the Alexander Turnbull Library,the University of Auckland Library, the Macmillan Brown Library at Canterbury University(Christchurch), the University of Hawai’i Library, the Library of the University of Californiaat San Diego, Yale University Library and the University of Michigan Library. The PacificRegional Branch of the International Council on archives is an associate member of thePMB.8
Resources for the Study of Environmental Transformation in the PacificPacific.3 During the 1990s the Bureau worked with the PNG National FisheriesAuthority and the PNG Coffee Industry Corporation to help ensure the survival oftheir archives.With funding support from the British Library’s Endangered ArchivesProgramme, preservation copies of the archives of the Ellice Islands District of theGilbert and Ellice Islands Colony were made in the period 2005-2009 by the PMB,in collaboration with the Tuvalu National Library and Archives and Richard Overy,a renounced Pacific archivist. The records include detailed land and garden surveysof all the islands of Tuvalu.Over the last few years the PMB has also collaborated with the RabaulVolcanological Observatory, the PMB National Archives and the RVO-GeoScienceAustralia Twinning Project to help organise and reformat key RVO archives andother records documenting volcanic hot spots for uploading to the RVO’s in-houseInformation Management System.Similarly, the PMB is working with the PNG Lands Commissions to digitisetheir main record series documenting customary land ownership and alienation.The PMB is also working with SOPAC to arrange and digitise a vast groupof Pacific disaster management papers collected by Joe Barr, a well-known Pacificdisaster management consultant who retired recently.Dr Mike Bourke and the PMB and are now trying, in vain so far, to raisefunding support for digital reformatting of irreplaceable land use survey reports,1940s-1980s, held by the PNG Department and Agriculture and Livestock. Thereports are all the more valuable since the loss of 60 years of research data in the fireat the Lowlands Agricultural Research Station at Keravat in East New Britain inApril this year.For further information please contact the Pacific Manuscripts Bureau,Room 4201, Coombs Building, College of Asia and the Pacific.
