'SA Memory is an online gateway to South Australian culture and heritage, past and present. This multimedia website focuses on the South Australian experience - what makes South Australia different from other places.
'SA Memory illustrates and interprets themes highlighting South Australia's people, places, issues and events from the colony's beginnings to now: South Australia's "memory".
'SA Memory helps to fulfil a key aim of the State Library of South Australia's Strategic Plan '...to continue preserving the memories of the state' through collection, preservation and accessibility to information about cultural heritage. SA Memory encourages collaboration with partners such as public libraries, local history societies, galleries, museums, archives, government agencies, businesses, and the community, to build a rich website resource and enhance the stories told. SA Memory showcases a wide range of archival and published materials:
'Many of these materials have previously only been accessible to visitors to collections, but are now accessible statewide and beyond.
'Most items available are about South Australia, created by South Australians, or produced in this state. These selected digitised items from the State Library and contributing partners support and encourage the study and celebration of the history and culture of South Australia.'
