History
NOTE: In August 2016 it was announced that the Christian Brothers' Province Archive and Records Centres would be integrated. The then Province Archive and Records Repositories located in:
- Brisbane - Christian Brothers - St Francis Xavier Province, Brisbane
- Perth - Christian Brothers - Holy Spirit Province, Perth
- Sydney - Christian Brothers, Oceania Support Centre – NSW and ACT, Sydney
were, by the end of 2019, to be located with the existing Melbourne (Kelty) Archives in one place at Kelty House, the Treacy Centre, Parkville, Melbourne.
The existing Kelty Archives at Treacy were to be modified to increase its storage capacity. (See http://www.edmundrice.org.au/CBOceania/images/NewsPDF/Announcement_Province_Centre_to_Melbourne.pdf)
