1 y separately published work icon Crossings : Bulletin of the International Australian Studies Association David Carter (editor), Shirleene Robinson (editor), Leigh Dale (editor), David Headon (editor), Helen Irving (editor), 1994 St Lucia : University of Queensland Press , 1996-1998 Z911554 1994 periodical (20 issues)

Crossings : Bulletin of the International Australian Studies Association provides 'reports from centres and affiliated associations, news of policy and funding initiatives relevant to Australian Studies, conference bulletins and also short articles on contemporary pedagogical and research issues in Australian Studies.' From 2008 the executive of InASA made a decision to no longer publish this bulletin separately but to more actively use the website (http://www.inasa.org/) as a place for the sharing of news. Over its distinguished history Crossings gathered together news from around the world about Australian studies. The bulletin often contained shorter original essays, sometimes on a shared theme. It is therefore an important archive of Australian Studies around the globe
