Finding rescued images

The Battye Library's Pictorial Collection is a major beneficiary of the HRRC project providing for the digitisation of at-risk images from both the negative and print collections and making a large quantity of these images available online. To date, some 3,482 images are now accessible to the WA community via the State Library of Western Australia website.
