Give voices asnecessary.The first of the two websites that I looked at waswww.middlemiss.org/lit/lit.html, it is constructed by Perry Middlemisswho is a lover of books, and who wishes to pay credit to thoseforgotten Australian writers on the Web. Middlemiss begins by naming70 Australian authors, and also provides think to those authors, andthose who do not have links to other sites a promise is made that theywill be provided in the future. By simply clicking on one of theauthors, for cause Miles Franklin, you are led to a web page thatgives a brief biography of the author, and also a list of her works,some of which also have links that give a brief insight.The site also prov ides listings of the winners of literary prizes, andin particular The Miles Franklin Award, and The Australian/VogelAward.

Apage that provides a short description on the authors and the booksthat are listed are available by clicking on the links.Another form of Australian Literature that is provided is poems.Middlemiss offers his favourite poet, Victor Daley on the site, andlists some of his poems, which are all accessible. He also lists otherAustralian poets, all of which have elevate links.
