During the CHL review, numerous academics and professional associations wrote letters to the ANU Vice Chancellor in support of CHL and its community and against the cuts. Demos Journal’s editorial team thank the respective associations for their kind permission to re-print their letters. If the university failed to recognise the valuable work of CHL’s scholarly community, the letters preserve the respect it deserved.
