The Len Beadell Branch Library in Salisbury have copies of unique photographs and Aboriginal genealogies. This collection was compiled by the anthropologist Norman Tindale during his travels to Aboriginal communities in South Australia in 1938-39.

The photographs and genealogies were collected from the following Aboriginal communities in South Australia: Point Pearce - Yorke Peninsula, Menindee - Point McLeay, Raukkan - Coorong Koonibba, West Coast, Swan Reach - Riverland, Port Augusta - Spencer Gulf. This collection of information will enable Aboriginal families from these communities to trace their family trees and also view photographs that may be of special significance.
