Partnerships, Collaborations & Projects

Our Partners, Collaborators and Projects

We partner and collaborate with  schools, education institutions, Associations, consultants, and academics on projects of mutual interest.  Depending on the nature of the relationship, Membership and Partnership agreements are some of the ways to formalise our relationship with you. 

Library & Archives NT Collaboration

Our collaboration with Library & Archives NT is long standing - the then Northern Territory Library provided the technical infrastructure for the website that grew into the Northern Territory Education Mob Digital Keeping Place. 

Library & Archives NT provides encouragement and guidance on digital collecting and access to their collection and digitisation equipment and processes. Digitisation processes meet the preservation standards for the Library & Archives NT digital collections.  With permission, the Northern Territory Education Mob digitises material from the Library & Archives NT collections which are added to both the Northern Territory Education Mob Digital Keeping Place and Territory Stories. 

If you donate your collection to the Northern Territory Education Mob, you may elect to make a parallel donation to Library & Archives NT.

Preserving Tiwi Language and Culture Project

The Preserving Tiwi Language and Culture Project is funded by the Commonwealth Indigenous Languages and Arts Program (ILA) and managed by the Catholic Education Office Northern Territory, in collaboration with Tiwi community members, the Patakijiyali Tiwi Museum  and Library & Archives NT to digitise and make accessible, Tiwi language and cultural resources in spoken language.  The project is recording books in the Tiwi language focusing on bilingual education material.  Much of the material forms part of the Living Archive of Aboriginal Languages collection held by Library and Archives NT.

The books are being read by strong Tiwi language speakers and recorded.

The recordings and digitised versions of the books will be used to create two new versions of each book - an interactive ebook and a movie version.  

The ebooks will be available through the NTEM Digital Keeping Place. 

The ebooks are being deposited with the National Library of Australia and Library & Archives NT for long term preservation and access through Trove and Territory Stories. You can find the latest list of books on Trove here.

Funded by the Northern Territory Government  Treaty, Healing and Reconciliation Grants 2023-24, this project is auspiced by Nungalinya College. The project is to facilitate the colocation and digital return of multimedia records relating to the Stolen Generations.

 The institutions contacted have been supportive of the intent of the project and as much of the material needs to be digitised and collection permissions checked, it is taking some time for the material to be provided. We have asked, for and been granted, an extension of time. 

A Coordination Committee with representatives from the Stolen Generation Aboriginal Corporation, Library & Archives NT, Nungalinya College and the Northern Territory Education Mob provides oversight to the work. 

The media is being managed on our Digital Keeping Place as ‘restricted’ to allow for improving the metadata. Careful, steady progress is being made.
