Inquiry into school libraries and teacher librariansRecommendation 1 The Committee recommends that the Commonwealth Government partner with all education authorities to fund the provision of a core set of online database resources, which are made available to all Australian schools. Response: Agree to consider. The Australian Government considers there is merit in exploring options for the provision of a core set of online database resources to all Australian schools. This recommendation has financial implications for the Australian Government as well as state and territory governments and would require the agreement of all parties. Implementation of the recommendation would need to be considered in light of other budgetary commitments and priorities. The Australian Government will consult with state and territory government and non-government education authorities to determine how this recommendation might align with other initiatives regarding online resources for schools.
