State Library User Organisations' Council Inc.
The State Library User Organisations' Council Inc. (SLUOC) is an Australian nonprofit organisation established in 2003[3] to coordinate professional and community groups in Victoria with interests in history, archives, genealogy, heritage, architecture, and academia[1][2]. It operates as a collaborative body to promote engagement with library resources and advocate for the development of collections held by the State Library of Victoria (SLV) and related institutions[4].
Purpose and activities
SLUOC focuses on enhancing access to and preservation of cultural and historical materials, particularly those within the SLV's collections[1][4]. Its activities include fostering partnerships between member organisations to support the SLV’s role as a national resource, with an emphasis on public engagement and educational initiatives[2][4]. The council serves the general community in Australia, working to strengthen connections between libraries, researchers, and cultural practitioners[3].
Membership and structure
Comprising professional associations and community groups, SLUOC functions as an incorporated association under Australian law[2][3]. While specific member organisations are not publicly listed, the council represents a coalition of entities engaged in preserving and interpreting Victoria’s documentary heritage[1][2].
Collaborative projects
Though distinct from the National and State Libraries Australasia (NSLA), SLUOC’s efforts align with broader sector priorities such as collection development and cultural awareness[4][5]. Its work complements initiatives like NSLA’s Culturally-safe Libraries Program by supporting localised approaches to heritage access[4][5].
