For the first time in almost a century, our streets were empty on Anzac Day. While our regular services were cancelled and familiar rituals missing, we were introduced to new ways of remembering those who served, those who died and those who are still serving. Driveway commemorations with neighbours allowed us to still pay respect while maintaining distance. To record this historic day, NSW State Library collected images as a record of this year’s unique commemoration so that people looking back will see how Covid-19 marked 2020 Anzac Day.
