Full description

The Victor Martin Trikojus Guide to Records documents and contextualises the records of Victor Martin Trikojus, lecturer in organic chemistry and medical organic chemistry at the University of Sydney and later Professor and Head of the School of Biochemistry at the University of Melbourne. This large collection of Trikojus' personal papers includes the scientific section of his library and his reprint collection. It also includes departmental files from Trikojus' time in the Biochemistry Department at the University of Melbourne, along with personal papers, research records and photographs. The collection documented by the Guide consists of 1764 inventory items, mostly paper format files. The records are grouped into 34 series. The total collection occupies 1,424 linear cm of shelf space (or its equivalent). The guide is the output of a research database. It was originally published in paper form in two volumes in 1987 by the Australian Science Archives Project. It was published online by the Australian Science and Technology Heritage Centre in 2004. The records are located at the University of Melbourne Archives. The collection was listed by Gavan McCarthy and Howard Sankey with assistance from Renae Alexander, Rita Hutchison and Andrew Taylor, index by Miranda Hughes.
