PANDORA is Australia’s Web Archive based at the National Library of Australia. They have been in touch requesting inclusion of Transmission lines 1955-1974 in the PANDORA Archive. This means the Library retains the project in the Archive and provides public access to it in perpetuity. It will be re-archived periodically to record significant additions and changes.
The Library will take the necessary preservation action to keep Transmission Lines accessible as hardware and software changes over time. The Library will catalogue it and add the records to the National Bibliographic Database (a database of catalogue records shared by over 5,200 Australian libraries), as well as to our own online catalogue. This will increase awareness of Transmission Lines among researchers using libraries. It also means these fragments of the story of EPT will be more readily found as part of Australia's history.
Transmission Lines 1955–1974 is a project by Linda Carroli. It documents my father’s working life as a rigger and linesman with the Electric Power Transmission and its Italian parent company. He kept a photographic record of his working life and the photographs featured in this map are his personal photographs from Australia and Italy in the period 1955 to 1974. He commenced work in Italy in 1954 and remained working with EPT until 1975.
