Kia ora,

There are a couple of new archive collections that have gone live on  KK this week. This happens after the RDLs have completed the arrangement and description of the collections.  They are:

FD11337 Malcolm Douglass papers: Malcolm is a retired town planner and transportation engineer who worked for various city councils and as a consultant planner for over 50 years. The papers include reports, talks and other documents relating to regional planning and transport. We have already been using this collection in teaching at UC.

FD1994 Florence Akins papers: Florence was an artist and teacher at the UC School of Fine Arts. This small collection includes study notes, photographs and correspondence.  it’s a great addition to the artworks we already have.

To browse the contents of either collection, go to KK,  select Advanced Search, type in either FD11337 or FD1994, then hit “load arrangement structure” to see the entire contents.  (Note this has been a bit glitchy this week, so may not display correctly,  E-services are working on it).

As always, huge thanks to the RDLs for their work on the archives
