NT Health Library Services acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of Country throughout the Northern Territory and recognises their continuing cultural and spiritual connections to the lands, waters, and communities. We pay our respects to elders past, present and emerging, and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people across the Northern Territory and beyond, many of whom are represented in our collections.
