Among the special collections of The University of Queensland are items of rarity, beauty, curiosity and cultural significance. These items connect us to our history and inspire our imagination. We are pleased to share them with you. These digitised photographs, manuscripts, architectural plans, and oral histories provide a glimpse into the troves of the Library and let you explore the stories they tell.

With contributions from academics and high profile authors like David Malouf and Janette Turner Hospital, Fryer Folios is a truly special publication. Print copies of Fryer Folios are available to read by appointment in the FW Robinson Reading Room.
