Petition to help save Trove

Members may remember an item in the January 2023 issue of Trails about the threat to Trove's budget as from 1 July 2023. If the Federal Government does not fully fund this most important resource, Trove may disappear entirely.

There is an e-petition on the Parliament of Australia website - here - to request that the Government fully fund Trove. The petition closes for signatures on 22 February 2023. Please consider adding your name to it. Please also pass on word of the petition to your friends and family - not just those in the family history community. Thanks.
