State Library of Victoria

The State Library of Victoria is one of Australia's oldest cultural institutions. It is the major reference and research library in Victoria, responsible for collecting and preserving Victoria's documentary heritage and making it available through a range of services and programs.

With more than two millions of collections, if every item was laid end-to-end, it would stretch for 90kms. The oldest book collected in here is "Boethius' De Musica, a late 10th-century manuscript". The oldest item is Cuneiform Tablet (c2050BC).
