The document provides an overview of the records held at the NSW State Archives relating to railway employees from the 19th and 20th centuries. It outlines key record series that can be used to find information about individuals who worked for the railways, including registers, personal history cards, photographs and records relating to specific railway occupations.

Sentenced beyond the seas - Australia's earliest convict recordsNSW State Archives
Our Sentenced Beyond the Seas project revealed tales of convict fraud, the origins of Australia’s love of beer, executions and more. For Open Day 2013 Janette Pelosi spoke of some of these tales of our earliest convicts from 1788 to 1801. The aim of the Sentenced Beyond the Seas project was to digitise and index Australia's earliest convict records. Convict Indents list the convicts transported to New South Wales. As a result you can now search over 12,000 names listed in these records and view the digital indents online.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...indexPub
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
