In early 2013, the Fryer thesis collection is on the move to a warehouse space. This move will bring the whole of the Fryer thesis collection back together in one storage area.

Access to all theses will be unavailable until at least the week beginning 7 January, to allow the movers access to the collection.

Staff members have had an exciting week sharing Fryer's collections with UQ students.
