It is easily distinguished because of its rocky formation at the top. The Glass House Mountains were named by Captain James Cook as he sailed north up the coast of what is now Queensland in 1770 as part of his epic voyage aboard his ship HM Bark Endeavour. They were so called as the shape of the mountains reminded him of the huge glass furnaces (glasshouses) back in his native Yorkshire.The mountains are the subjects of several Aboriginal tales and Coonowrin is said to be the son of Tibrogargan and Beerwah, two other mountains within the Glasshouse Mountains group. During a violent storm, Tibrogargan commanded his son Coonowrin to take his mother Beerwah and his siblings and help them move to safety. Being scared of the storm, Coonowrin instead ran off and when his father found him he hit him on the back of the head, resulting in Coonowrin's crooked neck. Tibrogargan was so ashamed of his son's cowardice that to this day he sits with his back to Coonowrin. This photo was taken by P.C. Poulsen in the early 1900s.(Mobsby Collection, Fryer Library, Brisbane)","br":["","","","",""]},"rights":["<a href=http:\/\/creativecommons.org\/publicdomain\/mark\/1.0\/' title='Public Domain Work'><img src='http:\/\/i.creativecommons.org\/p\/mark\/1.0\/88x31.png' style='border:none;' alt='Public Domain Mark' align='left' \/><\/a> Public Domain Work","http:\/\/creativecommons.org\/publicdomain\/mark\/1.0\/"],"license_ref":"http://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/mark/1.0/","subject":["coonowrin","crookneck","glasshousemountains","pcpoulsen","beerwah","vintage","cru","årgang","jahrgang","vendimia","aussiemobs",""],"type":"image","free_to_read":""}},"metadataSource":{"type":"nuc","value":"YUF"}}],"type":["Photograph"],"issued":1910,"holdingsCount":1}]},{"id":192178410,"url":"/work/192178410","troveUrl":"https://trove.nla.gov.au/work/192178410","title":"Portrait of a young man by C.

In newspapers and gazettes it adds illustrated, wordCount, correctionCount, tagCount, commentCount, listCount, trovePageUrl, and pdf (which is a link to a PDF of the whole page on which the article is published). In works it adds tagCount, commentCount, and listCount.

you can only harvest from one zone at a time, so this must be set to a single zone such as 'newspaper'

encoding

format of results

json

possible values are 'xml' (default) or 'json'

bulkHarvest

setting this to 'true' ensures that results will stay in the same order when you request subsequent pages; without it results might be duplicated or missing

true
s

supply a resumption token to get the next page of results

*

use '*' for the first request, then replace with the value of nextStart for subsequent results

Three parameters are important when harvesting a complete result set: zone must be set to a single zone, bulkHarvest set to 'true', and s must be updated after each request with the value of nextStart. Note that the nextStart value will only appear if there is another page of results to download, so you can use it in your loop as a check to see if you've finished.

Searching newspapers or gazettes

Limit results by article category

https://api.trove.nla.gov.au/v2/result?q=wragge&zone=newspaper&encoding=json&l-category=Article

parameter parameter note value value note
q

the search query (required)

wragge
zone

zone(s) to search in (required)

newspaper
encoding

format of results

json
l-category

category to include

Article

see Trove help documentation, or use the category facet for full list of possible values

This parameter can be used multiple times, however, this will behave like an AND query and only those articles in all of the specified categories will be returned. So adding &l-category=Article&l-category=Advertising will return zero results, as no articles are in both the 'Article' and 'Advertising' categories.

Limit results by place of publication

https://api.trove.nla.gov.au/v2/result?q=wragge&zone=newspaper&encoding=json&l-state=Victoria

json
l-state

place in which articles were published

Victoria

possible values are 'ACT', 'International', 'National', 'New South Wales', 'Northern Territory', 'Queensland', 'South Australia', 'Tasmania', 'Victoria'

This parameter can be used multiple times. Unlike the category facet, this will behave like an OR query, returning articles published in any of the specified places. So adding &l-state=Victoria&l-state=ACT will return articles published in either Victoria or the ACT.

Photo

the l-illustrated facet must be set to 'true'; common values include 'Photo', 'Cartoon', 'Map', and 'Illustration', set facet to 'illtype' to see all possible values

This parameter can be used multiple times, however, this will behave like an AND query and only those articles with all of the specified illustration types will be returned.

Filter articles by number of words

weather
zone

zone(s) to search in (required)

book
encoding

format of results

json
l-format

format or type of work

Thesis

see the Trove help documentation for a list of formats

This parameter can be used multiple times, however, this will behave like an AND query and only those articles in all of the specified formats will be returned.

Exclude works with a particular format

https://api.trove.nla.gov.au/v2/result?q=weather NOT format:Book &zone=picture&encoding=json

parameter parameter note value value note
q

the search query (required)

weather NOT format:Book

by adding NOT format:Book to the query we should filter out books

zone

zone(s) to search in (required)

picture
encoding

format of results

json

You can use the format index in both the query and as a facet, that means you can say that you don't want works with particular formats. This is handy for filtering out noise.

Limit to works created within a particular date range

https://api.trove.nla.gov.au/v2/result?q=weather date:[* TO 1900]&zone=book&encoding=json

parameter parameter note value value note
q

the search query (required)

the search query (required)

weather imageInd:thumbnail

set imageInd to 'thumbnail' to limit results to works that include a thumbnail link

zone

zone(s) to search in (required)

picture
encoding

format of results

json

The actual thumbnail link is included in the identifier field with a linktype of 'thumbnail'. To ensure you get all the possible values for identifier you can also add &include=links to your query.

Include metadata from all versions of a work

https://api.trove.nla.gov.au/v2/result?q=wragge&zone=picture&encoding=json&include=workversions

parameter parameter note value value note
q

the search query (required)

wragge
zone

zone(s) to search in (required)

picture
encoding

format of results

json
include

format of results

workversions

include the metadata for each individual version of this work

The way that versions are grouped as works in Trove can be quite confusing. The work level metadata is generally quite consistent, but it can leave out useful metadata that's attached to an individual version. The version metadata is richer, but is also less consistent, so you have to be prepared for some trial and error if you want to extract information from it.

Find works with full text

https://api.trove.nla.gov.au/v2/result?q=weather fullTextInd:y&zone=article&encoding=json&include=workversions

parameter parameter note value value note
q

the search query (required)

weather fullTextInd:y

set fullTextInd to 'y' to return only articles with full text

zone

zone(s) to search in (required)

article
encoding

format of results

json
include workversions

the full text is buried down in the version-level metadata, so you need to add this parameter if you want to actually get to it

The fullTextInd index seems quite misleading as it includes articles from commercial databases where only a truncated sample of the full text is actually available, and electronic legal deposit works where access to the text is restricted. It would seem better to combine this indicator with a search for "nla.obj" or nuc:ANL:DL to try and limit to resources digitised by the NLA and partners.

Limit to articles from a specific digitised journal (using facets)

https://api.trove.nla.gov.au/v2/result?q=weather&zone=article&encoding=json&l-title=The bulletin

parameter parameter note value value note
q

the search query (required)

weather
zone

zone(s) to search in (required)

article
encoding

format of results

json
l-title

limit to this journal title

The bulletin

There's no controlled list of journal titles to use with this facet, so you probably need to get the values from the web interface.

Limit to articles from a specific digitised journal (using identifiers)

https://api.trove.nla.gov.au/v2/result?q=weather "https://nla.gov.au/nla.obj-68375465"&zone=article&encoding=json&l-format=Article

parameter parameter note value value note
q

the search query (required)

weather "https://nla.gov.au/nla.obj-68375465"
zone

zone(s) to search in (required)

article
encoding

format of results

json
l-format

limit to this format

Article

limit the results to articles so we don't get the records for the periodicals themselves

An alternative to using the title facet is to include the identifier of the parent journal in the q parameter. This is how the Trove Digitised Journals app works.

https://api.trove.nla.gov.au/v2/result?q=rights:Free&zone=picture&encoding=json&include=workversions

parameter parameter note value value note
q

the search query (required)

rights:Free

see the Trove help documentation for a full list of possible values for rights

zone

zone(s) to search in (required)

picture
encoding

format of results

json
l-format

format of work

Photo
include workversions

the rights statements are attached to versions, so to see them you need to ask for the full versions data

This facet only works with records where the copyright status is specified in the record. Some out-of-copyright photographs might be missing from results because their status has not been identified. A search for photos created before 1955 using date[* TO 1954] might find additional out-of-copyright images.

Get individual records

Article or work identifiers are supplied as part of the url rather than as a query parameter. For example, https://api.trove.nla.gov.au/v2/newspaper/41697877 returns the details of the article with the identifier 41697877.

Get a newspaper or gazette article

https://api.trove.nla.gov.au/v2/newspaper/41697877?encoding=json&reclevel=full&include=articletext,tags,comments

parameter parameter note value value note

Get a list

https://api.trove.nla.gov.au/v2/list/43805?encoding=json&reclevel=full&include=listitems

parameter parameter note value value note
encoding

format of results

json
reclevel

amount of detail in record

full
include

include extra information

listitems

include details of all items in the list

You only get the brief record version for each of the list items, so to get extra information, such as OCRd text for a newspaper article, you'll have to request each article individually. Also, the list items are not paginated, so if you have a long list this will return a lot of data.

Get newspaper and gazette titles

There's a bug in the API so that a request for newspaper titles also returns the gazette titles. See the GLAM Workbench for a workaround.

Get a list of all newspaper titles

https://api.trove.nla.gov.au/v2/newspaper/titles?encoding=json

parameter parameter note value value note

include years

this needs to be included to retrieve the full issue information

range

date range of issues to return

18420101-18421231

dates are in YYYYMMDD format; this example will return details of all issues of the Sydney Morning Herald published in 1842

The issue details include a publication date and a url which redirects to the first page of the issue.

Get Trove contributors

Organisations can be nested under other organisations (as children), this makes the data structure a bit complex.

Get a list of organisations contributing data to Trove

https://api.trove.nla.gov.au/v2/contributor?encoding=json

parameter parameter note value value note
