About the eScholarship Research Centre (eSRC)
The University of Melbourne eScholarship Research Centre (eSRC) was formed in 2007 to continue the cultural informatic research undertaken by the Australian Science Archives Project (1985-1999) and its successor the Australian Science and Technology Heritage Centre (1999-2006).
The eSRC is a research centre in Information Services – an academic Centre outside the Faculty structure aimed at facilitating interdisciplinary, intra-institutional and inter-organisational collaboration. (View the Information Services Organisational Chart). The Centre's strengths are in cultural informatics, archives, data preservation and sustainable information systems for research.
