Many individuals, groups and organisations have assisted in the development of the South Australian Women Writers dataset. We particularly thank the following individuals and organisations for their support:

• the South Australian Writers' Centre
• staff of the State Library of South Australia, especially Prue McDonald and Juliana Bayfield
• staff of the Flinders University Library
• staff of the Barr Smith Library at the University of Adelaide
• Geoffrey Manning
• Barbara Wall
• Terry O'Neill
• Marlene Simons

Above all, we thank South Australian women writers themselves and the families and friends of those no longer living. From them have come details which are available from no other source and their generosity has considerably enhanced our knowledge of this area of Australian literature. Our warm thanks go to those who provided so much information and so many words of encouragement and appreciation.
