Lending and reference collections

听

The Aotearoa Room houses a collection of material about New Zealand鈥檚 heritage, M膩ori society, history and culture, and the Pacific Islands. All books are shelved together in one classified sequence, with the exception of the Ng膩i Tahu and Waitangi collections. Many books may be borrowed for the standard loan periods. Others must be used in the library. Lending Collection items have this red, black and white M膩ori motif on their spine:

Reference collection items comprise a selection of encyclopedias, atlases, bibliographies, journals, and indexes. There are also second copies of books found in the lending collection and many unique items. Reference collection material is labelled with a star on the spine. All items in this collection must be used in the Library.

There are 2 small separate collections in the Aotearoa Room:

Ng膩i Tahu collection

This consists of material about Ng膩i Tahu鈥檚 history, traditions, myths and legends, and the Ng膩i Tahu Claim. The collection has been established to provide better access to Ng膩i Tahu material and to further support our desire to build on the relationship between the Library and Ng膩i Tahu. Items in this collection have a yellow strip on their spine. Items that can be taken out of the Library also have the M膩ori lending motif on their spine.

Waitangi collection

This focuses on material produced by, generated from, and about the Waitangi Tribunal and the Treaty of Waitangi. Items in this collection have an orange strip on their spine. Items that can be taken out of the Library also have the M膩ori lending motif on their spine.
