Links to useful Gamilaraay and Yuwaalaraay sites The following list is far from complete, but it does contain some of the most useful sites for those learning GY, or interested in Australian languages more generally. If you can recommend a useful site, don't hesitate to contact us at the email address above. • Electronic information on GY is held on the Aboriginal Studies Electronic Data Archive (ASEDA) at the Australian Institute of Aboriginal and Torrres Strait Islander Studies: www.coombs.edu.au. • Another useful site is produced by David Nathan. It has annotated links to 180 resources for about 60 different Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander languages: www.dnathan.com/VL/austLang.htm. • The NSW Department of Aboriginal Affairs maintains the Aboriginal Languages Research and Resource Centre's site at the following address: www.alrrc.nsw.gov.au. • For nationwide information on Aboriginal and Islander languages, visit the FATSIL site. FATSIL is the Federation of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Languages, and is based at 295 King Street, Melbourne, Vic 3000: www.fatsil.org.au. • The Australian Government Department of Communications, Information Technology and the Arts administers the Maintenance of Indigenous Languages and Records Program. The Program supports the revival and maintenance of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander languages as living systems of knowledge shared by communities and passed down from generation to generation. More information about the Program is found at: www.dcita.gov.au. • In October 2006, the ABC 2 show Australiawide broadcast a short documentary about the language program at Walgett.
