In the 1880s, museum director Charles Frederick McCoy began production of his famous Prodromus of the Zoology of Victoria, and Museum Victoria has continued to promote its research and collections through the publication of high-quality books since that time.
Monographs, collected essays, field guides and exhibition catalogues are some of the formats the museum produces across a range of subjects, including natural history, indigenous art and history.
Both the specialist researcher and the ordinary reader will find something of interest in the list of museum publications.
