Hi everyone,
We have added a page on Describe NZ for Nga Upoko Tukutuku/Maori Subject Headings<http://nznuc-cataloguing.pbworks.com/w/page/47666034/Maori%20Subject%20Head…> which we hope will be a useful reference to cataloguers looking for the site or related information.
Please note the request for feedback: we're developing some training in the use of the headings and would like to hear if there's anything in particular you would like us to make sure we cover. Feedback can be sent to reo(a)dia.govt.nz<mailto:reo@dia.govt.nz>
Additionally, a question was asked at the CatSIG AGM about the availability of older records with Maori Subject Headings added retrospectively. A file of records sourced from the National Union Catalogue is available for download from Nga Upoko Tukutuku<http://mshupoko.natlib.govt.nz/>'s website. The file includes some work done in a retrospective project done by Victoria University of Wellington. If your library has completed, or is working on, such a retrospective project we'd love to hear from you so we can include your work in future files - please contact us at reo(a)dia.govt.nz<mailto:reo@dia.govt.nz>
