This series consists of the student resumes / yearbooks of the Australian Graduate School of Management. Each book contains profiles of all students within the graduating class of a particular year, usually including photographs. According to the 1978 issue, the books were producted to provide information on the background of students completing the Master's Program at the end of [this year and] to assist you in your search for qualified employees. From 1987 - 1993 the dating of the books was temporarily changed. Whereas previously the title of the book indicated the year that the students finished studying, during this period it was altered to the year a student's graduation ceremony was held. Consequently, there is no book titled 1987 and two different books titled for 1993, when the system was reversed again. In 1997 - 1998 separate resume booklets were produced entitled Student Resumes - Asian Region that included those students who have a particular interest in working in Asia. In 1999, following AGSM's amalgamation with the University of Sydney's Graudate School of Business, a separate resume book was produced for those students on the Newtown Campus, who were completing degrees begun at the Graduate School of Business in 1998. During 2006, the publications were re-named yearbooks. The dating also changed slightly to cover both Executive MBA students graduating at the end of a year and the full-time MBA students graduating early the following year. In 2009-10 the yearbook was released as a CD ROM only. The contents of the 2009-10 CD have also been copied to the network drive. From 2010-11 the yearbook was released as an online database only available on the Australian School of Business website (http://www.asb.unsw.edu.au/currentstudents/agsmmba/studentresources/careerservices/servicesforemployers/AGSMMBAyearbook/Pages/default.aspx ). A single pdf of all student CVs from the yearbook has been downloaded and stored in TRIM.
