SUMMARY:ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW. MODULE 2: USING CATALOGUING SOFTWARE
DESCRIPTION:The RHSV is offering a series of 6 linked workshops which cover cataloguing and digitisation. This series of workshops starts with basic concepts and builds in complexity. \nWe have spaced the workshops so that participants have time in which to put into practice their new skills before the next workshop. \nSome participants will want to book for the full series of 6 workshops and others will want to choose those individual workshops that are most suitable for them. So\, although the series is designed as a cohesive whole\, the individual workshops also work as stand-alone training sessions. \nAll workshops are limited to 20 participants and will be lead by Sophie Shilling\, our digital expert. They are all to be held at the RHSV: Officers’ Mess Upstairs\, RHSV 239 A’Beckett St\, Melbourne. This room\, unfortunately\,  is only accessible by a staircase – there is no disabled access. \nMODULE 2: USING CATALOGUING SOFTWARE\nFRIDAY 6 SEPTEMBER 1PM – 4PM\nThis workshop is for small organisations that are going to start use cataloguing software. Participants will have the opportunity to create catalogue records using cataloguing software\, and will learn how to move import an existing catalogue from Excel. This workshop is suitable for those who have created catalogue records using Excel and are looking to try some good cataloguing options before committing to one software application. \nMODULE 3: SCANNING FOR BEGINNERS\nFRIDAY 4 OCTOBER 1PM – 4PM\nMODULE 4: DIGITISING BOOKS AND PHOTOGRAPHING OBJECTS\nFRIDAY 1 NOVEMBER 1PM – 4PM\nMODULE 5: LOOKING AFTER DIGITAL FILES\nFRIDAY 22 NOVEMBER 1PM – 4PM\nMODULE 6: MAKING COLLECTIONS ACCESSIBLE\nFRIDAY 13 DECEMBER 1PM – 4PM\nINDIVIDUAL WORKSHOPS: RHSV MEMBERS: $25       NON-RHSV MEMBERS: $35\nQUERIES: +61 3 9326 9288 / OFFICE@HISTORYVICTORIA.ORG.AU\n\nAnd\, finally\, a date-claimer for our first workshop in 2020: \nBORN DIGITAL\nFRIDAY 24 JANUARY 2020 1PM – 4PM\, OFFICERS’ MESS UPSTAIRS\, RHSV 239 A’BECKETT ST\, MELBOURNE\nThis workshop is a stand-alone workshop which will be presented in partnership with AMaGA. It covers Born Digital documents – those documents that only exist in digital format. Although it is not part of our 6 module series it is naturally a good fit as a coda.  So\, this is a date-claimer as bookings for this stand-alone workshop will not open for several months yet. \n  \nEarlier modules in the series:\nMODULE 1: COMPUTER CATALOGUING FOR ABSOLUTE BEGINNERS\nFRIDAY 26 JULY 1PM – 4PM

SUMMARY:RHSV Wine-Tasting
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a very different and very convivial history event. \nEvidence of wine drinking can be dated back 9\,000 years. We certainly like our altered states of consciousness! We won’t be delving back 9\,000 years but both our hosts\, David Dunstan and Ron Leslie\, know their wine and their history and will be guiding us through both. \nThere will be a talk by David and a tasting of six wines organised by Ron\, book-ended with some mood-lightening Prosecco. \nThere will be raffles of quality wines on the night. A Barossa Langmeil The Freedom 1843 (old vine) 2010 Shiraz and a Campbell’s Liqueur Tokay  – the latter is being offered for a free tasting at the conclusion as well. \nDavid Dunstan. David\, an RHSV member\, is a Senior Research Fellow with the School of Philosophical\, Historical and International Studies at Monash University.  He has written on Melbourne\, cricket and wine. \nDavid’s wine articles have appeared in journals\, newspapers and magazines for decades. His books include: Better than Pommard! A History of Wine in Victoria (1994); and A Vision for Wine. A History of the Viticultural Society of Victoria (2013). \nRon Leslie. Ron is a former English and History School teacher (1966-99) and RHSV member. In 1968 he entered the wine industry and became a part-time wine wholesaler and retailer (1973-1992). He worked for Oddbins in London in 1978. \nRon was a judge for thirteen years at the Federation Square Regional Victorian Wine Competition and chief judge for seven years \n

SUMMARY:Lecture: The Wreck of the Fiji
DESCRIPTION:With the prospect of landfall in Melbourne just a day’s sail away\, the sight of the Otway Lighthouse beacon must have been comforting for the 26 crew of the barque Fiji. \n\n\n\n\nIt had been 106 challenging days at sea since the British-built vessel had set sail from Hamburg on May 22\, 1891\, its cargo a disparate collection of goods including 260 cases of dynamite\, crates of schnapps\, whisky and gin\, 400 German pianos\, toys\, iron and steel goods and candles. \n\n\n\n\nFor captain William Vickers and his international crew\, putting down anchor in Melbourne couldn’t come quick enough. \n\n\n\n\nTragically\, nearly half of them never lived to see Melbourne. \n\n\n\n\nWithin 24 hours\, on September 6\, 1891\, one kilometre east of Moonlight Head on the aptly named Wreck Beach\, the Fiji came to grief. \n\nHistorian and author\, Alan McLean will tell us all he has uncovered about the wreck of the Fiji. There will also be an supporting exhibition in the Cabinet of Curiosities\, curated by Cheryl Griffin\, of items recovered from the wreck by Heritage Victoria and items from the RHSV Collection. \n\nThe RHSV serves drinks from 5:15pm until 5:45pm in the Gallery Downstairs when we move upstairs for the 6pm lecture. Please note that there is no lift to the first floor and it is not accessible for those in wheelchairs or for those who have difficulty in climbing stairs. \nAlan’s book will be available for  sale on the night.

SUMMARY:Blue Lake: Finding Dudley Flats and the West Melbourne Swamp.
DESCRIPTION:Talk by David Sornig – Blue Lake: Finding Dudley Flats and the West Melbourne Swamp. \nIn Blue Lake\, David Sornig examines how the 8km-square zone to the west of central Melbourne became the city’s blind spot. Once a fertile wetland with a large blue saltwater lagoon\, it passed through various incarnations: from boneyards and rubbish tips; through the Depression-era Dudley Flats shanty town; to the modern-day docks. Through it all\, one thing that has persisted is its uncanny\, liminal quality. \nAs well as being a social history and a psychogeographic contemplation\, Blue Lake is a biography of three specific characters: Elsie Williams\, a Bendigo-born singer of Afro-Caribbean origin; Jack Peacock\, the king of Dudley Flats’ tip-scavenging economy; and Lauder Rogge\, a German hermit who lived for decades with sixty dogs on a stranded ship. By charting the rises and falls in their individual fortunes\, Sornig reveals much about the race and class divides of their times and explores questions about those strange and singular places in the urban fabric where chaos is difficult to contain.
