Mauriora Rewi Te Rohe o te Hikuroa held it’s Northland and Auckland Regional Hui in Whangarei this was hosted

by Whangarei Public Library on Friday 14th November 2003 Key points 1. Maori Services Standards (MSS) Jock gave an overview of how the MSS came about and a basic run down of the meeting held at Manuaku Libraries. From that meeting it was agreed that any feedback/comments were to be brought to the Hikuroa meeting here in Whangarei. To be discussed further. Rewi pointed out, that the meeting in Manukau, discussion was mainly focussing on larger (urban) libraries and that they wanted further discussion from the smaller (rural) libraries that would have a different perspective on the MSS. Bronwyn mentioned that there was no mention of a putea for Maori staff that are fluent in Te Reo Maori. After some discussion it was agreed that because of the limited numbers at this meeting. That the document be put on the TRW listserv so this makes it available for comment and that people can either email or bring comments to meeting on 25th November 2003 1-3pm be held at Massey Library. The time and date are yet to be confirmed Jock/Rewi to check calendars. Expo Rewi reported on the awesome expo – it was pretty rushed because the promotional material only came out three days before the event. This didn’t give much time to organise. Looking forward to the next expo and being more prepared and organised Next time. Haki mentioned that there were some good ideas from other stands that may be we could look at for the next one and also maybe setting up a day or two before. TRW Regional Hikoi Rewi reported on the Hikoi which started on Wednesday night with the kaupapa being to promote awareness of resources available at other libraries. Jock and Charles Royal both spoke. Librarians were given an opportunity to explain where they worked and what they do. It also gave the librarians a chance to network and discuss resources. The other institutions that were visited were the Auckland Museum, which was split into archives/paintings/resources and conservation. There was a bit of a mix up with Auckland University and Auckland Public Library. It was mentioned that we should In the future arrange another Hikoi and re-visit Auckland University and Auckland Public. Overall it was a good hui with about 40 in attendance. New Whangarei Library Whangarei District Libraries is at the planning stages of a new library. And Haki has been given 200square meters for Maori services. Haki is looking at ideas for this space. Rewi suggested visiting other libraries to get ideas. Haki also mentioned if anyone knew any

contemporary artists, carvers that could help. Norma suggested that there were very talent students and tutors at the Northland Polytechnic she will forward names onto Haki. It was also discussed that Haki get local artists instead of outside of the rohe. Bronwyn mentioned having a Bi-cultural approach toward our library, not only with artwork but the whole design. Kerikeri Public Library Bronwyn reported on the progress of the new library, which is geared to officially opening its doors on the 7th February 2004. There will be a ceremony on the 4th February and she is looking at support from TRW who she hopes will play a part in the ceremony. The library will have two floors and is in the shape of a waka with the ihu at the top mezzanine being the Maori Services area, and with a set of stairs which spiral down from each side of the waka which can be seen through glass. The philosophy or concept is that of a journey. She is at the moment getting bilingual signage made up and working with local iwi. Auckland City Libraries Congratulations Whina Te Whiu.

He mihi nui kia koutou katoa e mahi kaha ana i rō whare pukapuka. For over two years now I have been working for School Services, National Library in Auckland in the role of Reference Librarian/ Māori Adviser. I would like to share with you some of my experiences and challenges in the job. A small part of my role includes doing the loan requests for kura Māori and running hui on Māori resources and Māori websites. The bulk of my work is with the advisory side of my role and I work mainly with the thirteen kura Maori in Auckland. At present only three of these kura have operating libraries. This year I have been working intensively with two of the kura under the School Service’s Focus Programme. This involves first writing a strategic plan for development of the kura library with goals based on six principles of the Guidelines for School Libraries: Service, Place, Access, Information Resources Reading and Information Literacy. The action plan has usually involved assisting the kura to gain access to funds such as those offered by the ASB Trust and when the library is established making the library more accessible to the students. The programme also includes professional development with staff to develop information literacy skills across the kura. Another area we look at is a establishing a structure for the organisation of all resources in the school - an issue that all schools not just kura are grappling with. The challenges that kura face in establishing successful libraries are huge. Kura are characterised by small rolls, small budgets and a small staff who must wear many hats. The staff and students often have no previous knowledge of working in or using libraries. Then there is the problem of resources. Practically the only non fiction resources in Te Reo Māori are provided by the Ministry of Education. Unlike the English language journals these resources

are not searchable through a journal search database and therefore often sit in a resource room unused because of poor access. If these valuable resources were catalogued in the library system (noting that there are no existing records for most) they could be accessed more readily by students and teachers. There are additional challenges that need to be overcome to improve access and use of the resources by kura students. School library automation systems need to become more Māori language friendly i.e. develop Māori language interfaces. Secondly, Māori subject headings are needed so that the cataloguing in kura can be supported. Another issue that some Kura are exploring is the construction of a cataloguing system that incorporates Māori values. Kura students doing research (inquiry learning) encounter quite specific difficulties not experienced by their equivalents in mainstream schools. They have to be able to design their research questions in Maori, and then switch their key words and questions into English so they can do a search, find the resources (usually in English) and then be able to locate the information and take notes in Māori. In terms of skills they are in fact re-constructing the information into another language, as well as performing all the other higher-level skills involved in the research process. For a class of one teacher and twenty plus students, all who may not have started formally started learning English this is a challenging task On the positive side, in terms of recreational reading, the amount and range of resources for the young speaker of Maori has greatly improved. However, you can count on both hands the novels and early chapter books produced in te reo Māori. What do kura Year 5 and up students do for recreational reading? Stop reading for pleasure or start reading Harry Potter? Mine is an exciting job with ongoing challenges. Kia ora tātou. University of Otago Library The University of Otago Library has now made permanent, two Maori Resource Librarian Positions to begin 2004. Applications are invited from persons with appropriate academic and library qualifications for the two positions of Mäori Resources Librarian, in the Central Library of the University of Otago Library.

This competition was held to celebrate Mana magazine’s 50th issue and 10th anniversary – the goal was to create a visual record of contemporary Māori life and to celebrate te ao Māori. There were four categories:

Portrait (sponsored by Te Puni Kōkiri) Art/Recreation/Sport (sponsored by Reed) A Day in the Life (sponsored by Archives New Zealand) Under 18 Years (sponsored by Te Taura Whiri i te Reo Māori)

The overall winner, selected from the category winners, was a portrait of Ralph Hotere by Kevin Capon. Category winners were: Portrait: Kevin Capon; Art, Recreation and Sport: Mark Dwyer; A Day in the Life: Kerry Grant; and Under 18: Sana Holamotutama. You might have already spotted these photographs and some of the other entries in the October-November issue of Mana. The exhibition opens at Archives (10 Mulgrave Street, Thorndon) on 21 November and will run until May 2004. By the way, the exhibition Akona te Reo: Māori Language in State Education, which was mentioned in the last pānui, is still running at Archives New Zealand’s Wellington office and will continue through to September 2004. Akona te Reo is a joint project between Archives and Te Taura Whiri. It looks at the history of the Māori language in New Zealand from 1840 to 1990, and tells the story of both the suppression and promotion of te reo Māori, as seen through the records of government. A key document in this exhibition is the 1972 petition calling for the teaching of Māori in schools. The petition contains over 30, 000

signatures and helped to bring about official recognition of te reo Māori. There is more information about this exhibition on Archives New Zealand’s website at:

http://www.archives.govt.nz/exhibitions/tereo/intro.html Both the exhibition website and the exhibition itself are bilingual (thanks to Te Taura Whiri).

Te Whare Pukapuka o Te Whare Wānanga o Waikato Introduction Te Rōpū Kaimahi Māori (TRKM) and the MOD Squad (Library Bi-cultural staff) held our annual planning and training hui at Te Kohinga Marama Marae, University of Waikato on 13 and 14 November. Although the numbers attending the hui were small (6 TRKM and 4 MOD Squad members), we were a very enthusiastic group and a strong atmosphere of awhina and manaakitanga prevailed. Team Building This noho marae is an excellent team building exercise that nutures and refreshes us and also energises us for the year ahead. A major team building activity revolved around providing a hangi lunch for library staff on the Friday and ushering them to it. Activities included: • Mahi Raranga • Noho tahi, mahi tahi • Kai Hakari preparation Professional Development The professional development provided by Eddie and Charles was wonderful. They have an amazing knowledge and Charles is a born storyteller! Their presentations included: • Te Reo me ona Tikanga – Powhiri, Whaikorero,

Karanga • Tainui Waka and four Iwi; Hauraki, Raukawa,

Maniapoto and Waikato. Waikato Iwi utilise the Tainui title.

• The union of Turongo and Mahinarangi, relationship to Tainui Waka whakapapa and Turangawaewae Marae.

Planning Our planning began with a review of our 2003 objectives and looking at our successes during the year. One major success, which is a result of ongoing work over the years, was the participation, confidence and ability of library staff in providing waiata at a range of functions during the year. Other achievements included:

• Participation in Orientation Week activities for Māori students

• Te Reo and waiata sessions for library staff • Annual Waka Week – Ngaati Maniapoto • Matariki celebration • Te Wiki o Te Reo Maaori • Participation in Te Puna Tautoko – Campus-wide

student and staff support systems • Whanau tautoko – Tangihanga, Powhiri, • Three TRKM members attended the Te Rōpū

Whakahau Hui-a-Tau ki Orakei Activities planned for 2004 include all of the above activities as they are ongoing. The annual Waka Week will celebrate Aotea Waka and we will also be involved in a variety of activities celebrating the University of Waikato’s 40th birthday.

The Open Polytechnic of New Zealand, the Certificate in Tertiary Study Skills is designed to help students develop the learning strategies and skills necessary for tertiary study. It may be useful if you wish to undertake Information and Library Studies courses at the Open Polytechnic could be said to fall into this category. The two-course Certificate is delivered by distance learning, with all students assigned their own personal mentor to support them through their study. Students who successfully complete the first, core course are rewarded with one free course with The Open Polytechnic. Central to the Certificate is a new Tertiary Study Skills course. It covers effective learning and study techniques, information literacy (using libraries, online searching, referencing), academic writing, basic numeracy, computer literacy and constructing tables, spreadsheets and graphs. There is no examination. The assessment consists of a learning journal, an essay, and a report. To complete the course students need access to a computer and the Internet. Students who successfully complete the Tertiary Study Skills course will receive a voucher for one free Open Polytechnic degree-level course. The voucher can be used to pay for the second course in the Certificate. Information and Library Studies students could use it towards 72170 The Information Industry, the first core, compulsory level 5 course in both diploma and degree courses or any other approved level 5 course in the programme.

A personal mentor will keep in regular phone contact with students throughout both courses to help them overcome any problems and to give students a point of contact to help them around the tertiary system. Students will also be assigned a lecturer for their second course to help with the specific content of the course. For an enrolment pack call Customer Services on freephone 0508 650 200.

Executive Matters Kia Ora Koutou Welcome back David, Sonya & Glenn. Jenny Barnett Will Be Travelling Between Auckland And Tauranga And Will Be In And Out Of The Office. She Has Asked Me To Pass This Along To You Particularly Because She Is Concerned That She Will Be Unable To Attend The Hui On December 1st. Jenny's Mother Is Seriously Ill Whina Te Whiu has taken extensive leave of abscence to look after her mother who unfortunately is terminally ill. Our thoughts are with Whina and Jenny at this difficult time. Te Röpü Whakahau often has the opportunity to contribute to activities and events that relate to Mäori in libraries and information services. In most cases Te Röpü Whakahau makes contributions to the industry on a national level, which usually involves the provision of strategic advice. We encourage members to make links and work with the local Mäori community. We believe that those who are most able to identify and address the needs of the local Mäori community are the members of that community itself. Ngä Kaiwhakahau is keen to see members contribute to the success of these events and we will often invite your participation or at the least try to bring these activities or issues to your attention. The partnership agreement between Te Röpü Whakahau and LIANZA was renewed at the 2003 LIANZA Conference. It is renewed annually and is usually signed off at the LIANZA Conference. It is worth while considering relationships any organisation has especially such a significant one as this. Te Röpü Whakahau receives $10,000 from LIANZA for Advice on bicultural issues, tikanga, reo and collaborative work carried out between the two organisations. The LIANZA conference is the key event that Te Röpü Whakahau works closely with our partner to ensure the partnership agreement is realised.

Ngä Kaiwhakahau remain committed to the partnership agreement as the partnership provides our members with many opportunities, engage members with the wider library community and it enables us to promotes ourselves to that community. Nga Kaiwhakahau Hui Nga Kaiwhakahau endorse Inforamtion management Courses At its meeting on 29th – 31st August at Te Wänanga-o-Raukawa, Nga Kaiwhakahau met with Dr. Whatarangi Winiata and agreed to provide a statement describing the nature of our relationship with Te Wänanga-o-Raukawa, specifically that related to the library qualifications offered at the Wananga. The statement Waiho i te toipoto, kaua i te toiroa Let us keep close not wide apart The above whakatauki is the vision of Te Röpü Whakahau, Mäori in Libraries and Information Management and reflects the special relationship that exists between the two organisations. We have a joint commitment in the provision of a unique information management/library programme with a distinct Mäori perspective. This relationship is advantageous to both organizations as it works towards achieving the aspirations of Te Wänanga-o-Raukawa and the mission of Te Röpü Whakahau. An outcome of this affiliation is highly qualified professionals who can work in any information institution and/or establish and manage iwi/hapü repositories. Mentoring - NK Assisting new Nga Kaiwhakahau members in their role on the Komiti Whakahaere. Sonya to liaise with Haneta, Jenny to awhina Whina, Ruth & Marlyen to ask when assistance or clarification is required. All members to help one another especially with the forecasted increase in TRW matters. Recommendation: Nga Kaiwhakahau’s first hui after Hui-a-tau be a three day hui. This will allow the new Komiti to learn about the current work TRW is involved in, time to develop a business plan for the year, bonding, etc. It is suggested that the hui be a week prior to LIANZA’s hui [so we have time to discuss TRW representation on LIANZA Council.
