English abstract

Services from the National Library of Australia including the Australian Newspapers service and the new single business service are analysed to see how far they meet the needs of Wikimedians. Power and control of information creation, description and discovery are also discussed with particular reference to the fact that public users as well as libraries now have the ability to do this.
