Bush Fire Bulletin archive now online

History buffs in the Service will be happy to hear that the entire collection of Bush Fire Bulletins is now available online and fully searchable.

In a collaboration with the National Library of Australia, the Service has digitised the Bulletins which have been regularly published and read since September 1952.

NSW RFS Commissioner Shane Fitzsimmons has praised the opportunity for the Bush Fire Bulletin to be so accessible.

“I am very proud that this history of the NSW RFS will be available for all of Australia and the world to see.”

“The skill and dedication of our volunteer service has been recorded in the pages of the Bush Fire Bulletin, informing and bringing to life the important work our members undertake,” Commissioner Fitzsimmons said.
