Letters from various Australian Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander groups and organisations are in these correspondence files as well as in the subject related files in other series. Correspondence from literary and women's organisations that are associated with Australian Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders is included in this subseries.

This sub-series consists primarily of incoming correspondence and includes letters of thanks and appreciation for her literary work and activities, cards, and postcards. Correspondents are more often individuals. Some correspondents have included their own poetry. Often there will be written across the top of the letter 'answered' but very few copies of the outgoing correspondence are attached. Most correspondents names were clearly identified; some may not be accurate or unable to be identified.

The central figure of Harland’s Half Acre, Frank Harland, is another study of the artist-figure which continues to intrigue Malouf. Partly structured like Johnno and An Imaginary Life around two opposite individuals, the novel returns to the lush, exotic world of Queensland with a chronological narrative covering several decades. From his youth Harland is obsessed with the need to reclaim his family’s lost inheritance, the pastoral land with the nostalgic name Killarney. The dream turns sour when tragedy intervenes but Harland grows to understand that he has created another unexpected but more real legacy in his art. Harland’s Half Acre was first published in 1984. This subseries consists of two notebooks of 200 pages each with background material, notes and drafts, correspondence, various typescript drafts with handwritten corrections and additions, and a complete typescript of the finished novel.

This subseries includes letters from organisations and individuals asking Oodgeroo Noonuccal to appear in programs, provide content, and for permissions to use her literary works for television, film and radio productions.
