Statement on Harmful Language: We are committed to updating and revising our descriptive language in relation to: identifying instances of racism, sexism, ableism and other forms of discrimination proposing changes and replacing inappropriate language introduced during legacy descriptive practices researching how communities describe themselves and using contemporary/current language respectful to the people and events reflected in our holdings. If you encounter language in finding aids, catalogue records of archival holdings, digitised collections, exhibitions, etc., that you find problematic, offensive or harmful, or if you have questions or concerns, we welcome your feedback.
