Local History

The Scenic Rim Libraries hold a number of resources which can support local or genealogical history research. If they are published items then they can be accessed on the catalogue and at any branch library within the region, or if they are records from a local area then they are available at the closest branch library.

Beaudesert Library holds records relating to the Beaudesert area, as well as many of the published items which can be accessed in the library.

In addition, many of the records at the Beaudesert Library have been indexed alongside the Beaudesert Museum resources and can be accessed electronically here.

Boonah Library holds records in the archive relating to the local history of the Boonah area, as well as published items.

Canungra Library holds published items for use in the library.

Tamborine Mountain Library holds records relating to the Tamborine Mountain area, as well as published items.

The Scenic Rim Heritage Network is a collection of the historical villages, museums and collections within the Scenic Rim region. A brochure will soon be available at these museums with further information about the collection.
