ALIA Information Online 2015 Conference, 2-5 February Sydney : at the edge
This conference paper has three purposes: to give an overview of the Australian digital collections as they stand today; discussion of the marketing of digital collections tied to a pilot study that the authors have undertaken and finally, to discuss assessment and evaluation of what users’ desire in a digital collection. 

This submission addresses the question ‘What does the Asian century mean for Australia?’ It makes recommendations in two key areas: Australia’s knowledge of Asia, and ways of deepening engagement between Asia and Australia in the sphere of civil society in which library and information services are centred.
