Description From SourceAt the initiative of Rasa Mauragis, the chairperson of the Australian Lithuanian community, effective inter-institutional cooperation began as early as 2022, after the signing of the tripartite Cooperation Agreement between the Lithuanian Central State Archives, the Australian Lithuanian Community and the Australian Lithuanian Archives. November 2023 cooperation gained momentum – employees of the Lithuanian Central State Archive visited the Australian Lithuanian Archive (ALA) in Adelaide. During the business trip, they communicated with ALA volunteer archivist Daina Pocius and her assistant volunteers Jurate Grigonis, Birute Beal and Edita Meskauskaite, who work in the archive. Meetings and conversations were held with the president of the Lithuanian community of South Australia, Aleksas Talanskas. During a visit to the Australian Lithuanian Archive, located in Adelaide Lithuanian Catholic Centre, potential exhibits were selected for the upcoming virtual exhibition.
