I start by acknowledging that we meet on the land of the Cadigal people of the Eora Nation and pay my respects to their elders, past and present and to any Aboriginal people present this evening. Th is is not an empty, ritualised statement but a profound statement of respect for people, history and tradition. It is a most appropriate practice for us, the keepers of knowledge. For it is our responsibility to gather, preserve, carry forward and make available knowledge. We do that in many ways from the emphasis on meeting community needs by public libraries to the great heritage collections with which I am entrusted at the State Library of New South Wales. My career until now has been in academic libraries which combine these imperatives, combining a major emphasis on meeting immediate study needs, just in time, with the construction of just in case collections to support research today and into the future and a responsibility to preserve the scholarly record, a responsibility which is now being extended to research data management at the same time as the concern to hold archival copies of publications declines. Acknowledgement of country is also apt for this conference of the Australian and New Zealand Th eological Library Association as it demonstrates a reverence for tradition and for understanding belief. Although I have not worked in theological libraries, this aspect has been important to me for two decades during which I have tried to provide some leadership in exploring how we librarians and archivists in the Western, and specifi cally AngloAmerican, tradition of professional practice can engage with the very diff erent cosmologies and epistemologies of Indigenous peoples and to explore what that engagement would mean for our professional assumptions, norms and behaviours.
