Safety at work and home – SLV collection

The STATE LIBRARY OF VICTORIA (like all other like institutions) is digitising sections of its collection. What does this mean?

Not sure technically but, if you search their catalogue online, you can find a recently available treasure, 341 posters reproduced by searching ‘National Safety Council of Australia’. It looks like the SLV does not have the full set as the posters reproduced below are numbered 1939, 2025, 2037 and 2062.

Here are a sample:
