*** Telstra provides accommodation, at no charge to the National Corporate Records Group, as it is a relatively small area that cannot be utilised for any other purpose presently.
The OTC Archive is to be transferred to the NAA within the next 12 months or so.
#   The OTC Archive obtains no income as such, although accommodation is provided at no cost to the group
~~ There is small web page on www.wesley.org.au about the archives
