New bib record service available from National Library

This new service is one of the outcomes of the Maximising Te Puna Value (MTPV) programme. The metadata project, underway since April 2011, aims to improve current metadata processes within Te Puna so as to make cataloguing and holdings management easier and more accurate for New Zealand libraries.

This service will provide a monthly file of bibliographic records from the National Union Catalogue for fulltext items which are held in the National Digital Heritage Archive (NDHA) and are freely available.

An added benefit is that each record contains a permanent link to the item in the NDHA. This link will not change so you can be assured that users will be able to quickly and easily access the digital item.

To start things off, we are releasing a file of the records for New Zealand digital items added to the NDHA from its beginning (November 2008) to the end of October 2011. This initial release comprises 4 separate files:

• New Zealand website preserved in the NDHA from November 2008 to October 2011
• Digitised New Zealand maps, series NZMS13
• Digitised New Zealand maps, series NZMS290
• All other items freely available digital items preserved in the NDHA from November 2008 to October 2011

Download the files in MARC21 format with UTF-8 character encoding

After the first release a file will be produced monthly. The first monthly file of items added to the NDHA in November 2011, is being released at the same time as the 2008-2011 files.

The New Zealand map series records are for maps digitised as part of a collaborative project between The University of Auckland and the National Library of New Zealand. The bulk of the remaining records are for material obtained under the legal deposit provisions of the National Library of New Zealand Act (2003).
