State Library and Archives of Tasmania manages Tasmania’s collection of permanent Government records. You can access most records over 25 years old and some more recent records. Some records include personal information. You may not be able to access them. These include records about
- education
- health and human services
- child welfare and protection
Our records show whether a record is open or restricted.
You can
- use the Tasmanian Archives catalogue to search for records, or
- Our staff can help you to search for records about yourself.
Government agencies who created the records decide access conditions. You may need to contact the government agency that created the records to access records about yourself. ‘Right to Information’ procedures might apply. Our staff can help you with
- deciding how to ask for the records
- the contact details of an agency.
