eMelbourne

The eMelbourne online registry is an A to Z reference work covering the Melbourne's history from pre-European settlement up to the present day. Entries range from short factual summaries about places, institutions and events, through to extended survey articles on key topics such as Architecture, Aboriginal Melbourne, Economy, Foundation and Early Settlement, Law and Order, Literature, Science, Sport, Suburbia, Theatre and Transport. eMelbourne contains the full text of the print volume - The Encyclopedia of Melbourne - with additional text and digital resources. Early development of the online Encyclopedia of Melbourne was supported through a grant from the Australian Research Council Strategic Partnerships with Industry - Research and Training (SPIRT) Scheme, 2001-2002. The City of Melbourne has also provided assistance through an Art + Heritage Grant (2007).
