Murdoch University has a large collection of SF related works. There are thousands of books on the shelves in the main part of the library.
In the basement there is a book-film tie in collection with around 1200 books. They are either the book of the film, or the book that the film was based on. Or even a TV series for that matter.
Also as previously mentioned in this blog there is a t-shirt collection, (and here on Flickr) boxes of Fanzines that were collected by Leigh Edmonds and several folders of his personal SF related correspondence.
In order to find ways, other than this blog, of getting information about them out to the world they have to be catalogued and processed. This takes time and money. The film tie in collection has already been done and you can browse it here.
If you would like to donate money to the Murdoch University Science Fiction/Speculative Fiction Foundation (MU(SF)2F) to help Murdoch to do more, then you can find donation forms here.
