Partnerships between Flickr and Australian Libraries
This is a great collection of images that the State Library of New South Wales has added to Flickr. However, I'd like to mention that Picture Australia demonstrates a Flickr partnership with an Australian Library that I'm sure predates the SLNSW. Picture Australia is a National Library of Australia project in which they partnered with Flickr to allow members of the public to contribute photographs to the Picture Australia collection. This wonderful resource includes image collections not only of individual Flickr members, but also over 40 libraries and museums.
