Project Update 11 – Scanning and Uploading Bound Unreported Judgments to NZLII

Over the last month Sue has uploaded another 1000 decisions of the Employment Tribunal to NZLII. We’ve now uploaded 4000 Employment Tribunal decisions of the approximately 20,000 we think we’ll need to upload.

We can tell these are being used as NZLII’s stats are showing that they are accounting for around 1% of the usage stats for 2017 so far (some of this will be our checking but not all of it).

It’s a big commitment from UC to digitise these and get them on NZLII so thank-you to everyone who is supporting the team in this work. Once we’ve finished we will share this work to encourage other libraries to follow a similar collaborative model with NZLII to make more Court and Tribunal decisions available to the NZ legal community.
