Vision

Public Record Office Victoria’s vision statement is ‘Public Records Publicly Available’.  We seek to inspire public servants to keep good records so that we can fulfill our mission: We set the rules for government recordkeeping and provide leadership to foster compliance. We ensure the historical memory of government in Victoria endures and is accessible.

Material in the Public Record Office Victoria archival collection contains words and descriptions that reflect attitudes and government policies at different times which may be insensitive and upsetting

Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples should be aware the collection and website may contain images, voices and names of deceased persons.

PROV provides advice to researchers wishing to access, publish or re-use records about Aboriginal Peoples
