City of Perth History Centre
If you are tracing a Perth address, business, building or family, the City of Perth History Centre is a useful starting point. The City's current listing says the centre is closed to public visits. Its staff still accept enquiries by email or telephone. Do not follow an old “museum open today” listing into the library expecting to browse the centre in person.
