The best collections in the world have well-trodden pathways to their door and are those with contemporary currency. The generosity of supporters has underpinned our ability to preserve, research and communicate the essence of our collections. It has enabled us to inspire lifelong learning, to ignite a spark of discovery, to share our extraordinary stories and to enjoy our unique collections with the broad community. All support which is highly valued by the State Library.

There are many ways in which you can choose to become involved.
