MSC Publishing and Media Report 2021 for the General Administration, Analecta.
Apologies – we have been disconnected from the Internet since Thursday evening.
The tradition has been to name the books and further publications of the province. However, worldwide readership of books has been diminishing, greater reliance on social media. This is reflected in the life of the province.

Websites and Facebook pages.
The Province Website, MISACOR. au, established in 2006, in its present form since 2010, has six postings per week. And, automatically, the posting appears on the province’s Facebook Page.
Thanks to Brett Adamson and Matt Price for re-designing the site home page and restructuring the headings and contents under each heading. Also the introduction of the Safeguarding section. And the possibility for translating the posts into a number of languages.
Since 2020, and lockdown, vigils and funeral masses have been recorded, available on Youtube. Zoom was used for Provincial Council meetings as well as the different sessions of the General Conference with an international team including Roy O’Neill and Brett Adamson in Sydney.
