The Early New Zealand Books Collection has been developed by staff at The University of Auckland Libraries and Learning Services.
The collection aims to provide a complete online full-text and keyword-searchable corpus of books about New Zealand which were published in the first two-thirds of the nineteenth century.
Original texts have been sourced from Special Collections/Kohikohinga Motuhake in the University of Auckland Libraries and Learning Services.
Further items have been added as a result of partnership agreements with Auckland Libraries and the Auckland War Memorial Museum.
Cataloging records are created in the University of Auckland Libraries and Learning Services catalog, and uploaded from there to Te Puna and World Cat.
