There are more than 200 Australian Indigenous languages. Less than 20 of these languages are strong, and even those are endangered: the others have been destroyed, live in the memories of the elderly, or are being revived by their communities.
This Virtual Library web catalogue has annotated links to 312 resources for 99 languages. About 44% of these resources are produced or published by Indigenous people.
