Dear colleagues
The Aboriginal Languages of Australia Virtual Library at
http://www.dnathan.com/VL/ has just been fully updated, with 36 new items,
over 20 ''lost'' sites relocated, and 25 permanently dead links removed. A
new phenomenon since the last update is the emergence of blogs. There has
been an overall increase to 231 items in 76 languages from 224 items in 70
languages (in May 2005), and the proportion provided by Indigenous sources
has risen slightly from 33% to 35%. In general the situation for Australian
languages web resources has become more stable in the last two years.
