Tēnā anō koutou,
Please see Professor Angus Macfarlane’s email re. Māori Research Hui for next month. Rā and I were fortunate to present to them on behalf of the Library last month. His feedback has been included. Let me know if you would like to attend or email Lisa Beardsley directly.
Kia ora koutou
April was the second of our monthly Māori Research Hui for 2018. Thank you to all who attended and participated – we had a good muster in March and last month the numbers grew again. Obviously word is getting around, so please continue to spread the word, and bring a colleague or postgraduate student whose research interests are aligned to a Māori or Indigenous kaupapa. Make a regular diary entry, Māori Research Hui 12 noon fourth Thursday every month.
Great to have Adjunct Professor Wally Penetito on campus and sharing golden experiences with UC researchers.
Thank you to the librarians for an informative and research-geared presentation. Waitangi reminded us that the library is indeed the ‘heart’ of research-related resources. The librarians’ presentation reiterated how generous they are with time and accessibility. Nei rā hoki te mihi maioha ki ngā kaimahi o te Whare Pukapuka.
The next Hui will be Thursday 24 May. Nau mai, haere mai, hoki mai anō kia whakaputa ake ana ngā kōrero me ngā whakaaro e pa ana ki tā tātou nei mahi rangahau.
