515 ## - NUMBERING PECULIARITIES NOTE
Numbering Peculiarities Note NUMBERING PECULIARITIES NOTE:<br/>Anne Collins’ papers were received by the Jessie Street National Women’s Library in a type-1 archive box that was numbered 30. The papers were held in three buff coloured manila folders labelled “Pine Gap/WAAGV”, “Newspaper clippings 1985” and “C4”. A single sheet of handwritten notes listing the contents was loose in the box. Because there was no discernible order, the papers were re-arranged by Archivist, Beverley Sodbinow, dividing them into six series for ease of access.
520 ## - Administrative or biographical history
Administrative or biographical history ADMINISTRATIVE OR BIOGRAPHICAL HISTORY: <br/>Anne Collins papers were once part of the Women’s Archive, a collection started early in 1982 by a small group of Women’s Studies students at the Australian National University (ANU) in Canberra. The Archive was supported by ANU although it received no financial assistance from them. The “Canberra Women’s Archive” as Women’s Archive became known, consists of the personal records of some prominent Canberra women activists, and the papers of community women’s organisations which were established in the ACT during the 1970s and 1980s. The collection documents the history of the second wave feminism movement in community women’s groups in Canberra. In 1993 it became impossible for the Women’s Archive to continue its operations due to lack of funds. Mary Hutchison and Frances Sutherland donated the material to Jessie Street National Women’s Library (JSNWL). Because it is unique, conditions of the donation to JSNWL were that the collection was to be kept together and not subsumed into a major collection. When JSNWL took custody of the Canberra Women’s Archive the collection was deposited at the Petersham Town Hall repository of the Marrickville Council for safe keeping until funding was arranged.<br/><br/>In 1995 an archival policy was implemented by JSNWL through a Special Research Project at the University of New South Wales coordinated by Dr. Peter Orlovich. Student archivist Martine Bright undertook to appraise the Canberra Women’s Archive. She compiled a report and submitted it in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the award of the Graduate Diploma in Information Management Archives/Records. In 1999 the Archives were brought to the library’s new home in Town Hall House, Sydney when the library received a state government grant through the Ministry for the Arts. This enabled the library to employ two part time archivists to work on the collection.<br/><br/>No biographical information exists concerning Collins.<br/>
