ANZCA Special Book Collections
After a long process, the ANZCA library has collected and catalogued three large collections of historical books. With an increased interest from the membership in anaesthesia history, library users can now easily search the ANZCA Library catalogue for particular items or browse the following collections.
The Gwen Wilson Collection holds about 70 items donated to ANZCA by Dr Gwen Wilson on a unique range of topics, reflecting Dr Wilson's interests and research.
The Geoffrey Kaye Collection contains over 100 items, some published over 100 years ago, which were part of Dr Geoffrey Kaye's private collection.
A General Historical Collection collates over 270 older publications from a wide variety of sources, including many early editions of core anaesthesia texts.
