Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander books across various fields

VU library is providing student and staff opportunities to increase their knowledge on Indigenous Australians as we move together into the Strategic Plan 2022-2028. The Plan embeds Protecting Country within Victoria University and ‘It is our responsibility to respect and listen to Indigenous voices and standpoints, upholding and privileging self-determination, sovereignty and authority.’  The library recently (2022) added several electronic books to the VU library Collection after consideration of authorship, publisher, content and relevance.
