Dutch

Dutch-language materials on Australia date to the early seventeenth century, when explorers and agents of the Dutch East India Company or VOC first visited Australia and called it 'New Holland'. Some valuable collections and materials can be found in the Mitchell Library of the SLNSW, which owns the famous Tasman Map of Australia dating to the 1640s, and the National Library of Australia (NLA). The NLA has extensive holdings of early Dutch materials, such as pre-Federation Dutch maps of Australian discoveries and manuscripts of Dutch explorers. Trove contains issues of newspapers and magazines in the Dutch language published in Australia after WWII. These articles provide us with insight into the post-war Dutch experience in Australia.
