Reo Māori terms

We have a new approved list of reo Māori terms for the Library.   Some of the terms have changed due to a better understanding of what the role does.      The name of the UC Library is now Ngā Puna Mātauraka (o Te Whare Wānanga o Waitaha).   This acknowledges that the Library is about knowledge in its many forms rather than just books.

Please check that you are using the correct terms and update the various places that the reo Māori terms may appear including the website, signatures, business cards etc.

Ripeka and Nekerangi are happy to explain the background for the changes and pronunciation of the terms.

Ngā mihi nui, Anne
