What's in your Library???

With so much info available these days via the internet there seems to be a decrease in available info on actual hard printed material.
Just went back through my "library" to see what favourites I go back to for research and goldfields/prospecting information.
Not a massive list but relevant and full of good info ...... here's a list, if you haven't read them before check out your local library. These are Victorian related, someone may be able to do the same for the other states.

History of the Wedderburn Goldfields - J R Grey 1961 Ed.
Old Pubs, Inns, Taverns & Grog Houses of the Vic. Goldfields - J R Flett 1979 Ed.
Goldfields and Mineral Districts of Vic - R Brough-Smyth Fan. Ed. 1990 (orig.1869)
Dunolly, Story of Old Gold Diggings - J R Flett 2nd Ed. 1974
Maryborough Goldfields History - J R Flett 1st Ed. 1975

The Gold Fields of Victoria, Reports of the Mining Registrars -

Not Victorian related but likely to get there before getting to W.A.
Gold & Ghosts Vol. 3 Old. Central & Southern Districts - D W De Havelland

If you have any that you recommend please let me know, they are becoming increasingly difficult (and expensive) to find.

The Brian Lloyd books are now collectable and their price reflects that - I got Gold at the Ten Mile and Gold at Gaffneys Creek for a mere $10 a copy which is a tenth of the price my brother paid for them last year

Nice lot Casper, obviously reflects your maine interest area.
Lot of local Historical Societies have libraries full of local references, worth a look but their opening hours are sometimes prohibitive.
