Kia ora,
Jamie and I attended Pecha Kucha Christchurch the other night. It was a really interesting evening. Best of all was seeing how many people presented who have carried out research in Macmillan Brown, including Andre Lovatt from the Arts Centre, Katharine Watson from Underground Overground Architecture, Rosemary Baird from Heritage NZ, Jenny May, Lucy Jane from Ceismic and Lloyd Carpenter, who recently completed his PhD.
It’s amazing to see how the UC Library collections are aiding the Chch rebuild and improving knowledge about NZ heritage in general. We are definitely helping the University connect with the community.

Well done everyone.
