Description
Something strange and exotic began appearing in the 1990s. Australian universities, particular kinds of universities, began establishing a local version the US presidential libraries. At the time, however, I confess my immediate reaction was that the idea was not just surprising, but odd: odd as in 'oddball', only slightly more understandable than the Grainger Museum or the Stockman's Hall of Fame. So it seemed to me then, given my background with two Australian national institutions which held prime ministerial collections and where I had worked on papers of the two Billys, Hughes and McMahon. I also knew none of the universities in question involved were prime ministerial alma maters, and more importantly, knew that the US presidential library system was effectively part of national archival arrangements.
