| Archives New Zealand Library catalogue |
 |
Archives New Zealand Library holds New Zealand’s most comprehensive collection of archival and records management texts and serials. This includes books and journals on:
- Conservation & preservation
- Archives management
- Records management
- Archival theory & history
- Archives from the perspective of other academic disciplines
In making the Library collections available to the public Archives New Zealand intends to contribute to and promote archival education and support the work of New Zealand’s recordkeepers and archivists.
Library materials can only be borrowed through the Inter-Library Loan system. The Library is not open to the public except by prior appointment (appointments must be made several days in advance).
The Library’s primary function is to serve the staff of Archives New Zealand. The collections are there to ensure the staff have all the relevant information necessary to do their work to the highest standard. This includes published material which places the content of the archives into a wider context and material which ensures staff are up-to-date with the current best practice within their professional field (e.g. Preservation staff). This ensures staff are informed of current scholarship and trends in recordkeeping practice and thinking from the full spectrum of international opinion. |
