Ngā Upoko Tukutuku Māori Metadata new and changed terms update - Paengawhāwhā/Āperira/April 2023
by Catherine Amey 01 May '23

01 May '23

Tēnā tātou The latest collection of new and changed Ngā Upoko Tukutuku headings are now available for use on the National Library website.<https://natlib.govt.nz/librarians/nga-upoko-tukutuku> Below is a selection of the changes - please explore the website<https://natlib.govt.nz/librarians/nga-upoko-tukutuku> for the full list. These were created during hui early in 2023 and later last year, so it’s wonderful to be able to share these. This update is relatively small, but we are planning another release after the next hui in May and July. We’d love to have more requests to work on - tukua mai ōu whakaaro mō ngā ingoa me tāpiri anō ki te pae tukutuku! Sending in requests is a really easy process: if you're handling a collection item that is either in te reo Māori or has content about Māori, and you can't find an existing term in our thesaurus to suit your item, please email reo(a)dia.govt.nz<mailto:reo@dia.govt.nz> with your suggestion and the details of what you were working on. Suggestions in English where you don't know a Māori term are just fine. Please get those suggestions rolling in and we'll add them to our worklist. Details of the Paengawhāwhā/Āperira/April 2023 release This update includes a number of terms which may be useful in the context of environmental change. The rōpū created a term for sea level rise, Piki o ngā tai, which links to the existing terms Huringa āhuarangi (Climate change), Te mahana haere o te ao (Global warming) and the new term Pae moana, which refers to the surface of the sea. Pae moana may also be used for works about sea levels or the sea horizon. Other new terms relating to the Taiao (Environment) include Horanuku (Landscapes) and Paerangi, which describes the horizon in a general sense. Te Whakakaokao has also created new terms relating to social conditions. While most Covid-19-related restrictions have been removed, lockdowns are still in recent memory and protecting whānau remains important. The term Aukati rori may be used for community checkpoints to safeguard iwi and hapū in the context of Covid-19 and other situations where communities are at risk. Utu kaimahi (Wages) is another term of topical interest. On a lighter note, there are now new terms for both contemporary and long-established recreational activities. In the context of waka ama, the term Kaihoe has been created to describe paddlers. Tauwhāinga-toru refers to triathlons, while Mū tōrere is a classic game using counters on an eight-pointed star design. Ngā Upoko Hou – Full list of new terms Aukati rori – Iwi checkpoints Hiakai - Hunger Horanuku - Landscapes Kaihoe - Paddlers Kōrere – Feeding funnels Mū tōrere - Traditional game using counters on an eight-pointed star design Pae moana – Sea levels Paerangi - Horizon Piharau - Lampreys Piki o ngā tai – Sea level rise Tauwhāinga-toru - Triathlons Te Ao Mārama – World of light Toi tangata - Humanities Utu kaimahi – Remuneration, wages Nā ngā kaimahi o Te Whakakaokao

Tēnā koutou/Greetings to you all, The National Library of New Zealand has loaded a second test set of Policy Statements to the RDA Toolkit.

Following our successful load of Policy Statements for the Manifestation entity for the September 2022 release of the Toolkit, we have now added Policy Statements for Agent, Collective agent, Corporate body, Family, Person, and Timespan entities.

If the NLNZ Policy Statements don’t appear in the list, you may have to update the settings in your Views. What about supporting documentation? Throughout the NLNZ Policy Statements you’ll see references to the NLNZ Guidance. This is a document to support cataloguers to use the NLNZ Policy Statements in conjunction with the RDA Toolkit, similar to the Metadata Guidance Documentation<https://aus01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.loc.g…> produced by the Library of Congress and Program for Co-operative Cataloguing (LC-PCC).

Ngā Upoko Tukutuku Māori Metadata new and changed terms update - Whiringa-ā-rangi/Noema/November 2022
by Catherine Amey 15 Nov '22

15 Nov '22

Kia ora The latest collection of new and changed Ngā Upoko Tukutuku headings are now available for use on the National Library website.<https://natlib.govt.nz/librarians/nga-upoko-tukutuku> These are the product of our recent Zoom hui, so it’s wonderful to be able to share these. We’d also love to have more requests to work on - tukua mai ōu whakaaro mō ngā ingoa me tāpiri anō ki te pae tukutuku! Sending in requests is a really easy process: if you're handling a collection item that is either in te reo Māori or has content about Māori, and you can't find an existing term in our thesaurus to suit your item, please email reo(a)dia.govt.nz<mailto:reo@dia.govt.nz> with your suggestion and the details of what you were working on. Suggestions in English where you don't know a Māori term are just fine. Please get those suggestions rolling in and we'll add them to our worklist. As Te Whakakaokao has created a large number of new terms since the previous release, the notes below only represent a selection of the changes – please explore the website<https://natlib.govt.nz/librarians/nga-upoko-tukutuku> for the full list. Details of the Whiringa-ā-rangi/Noema/November 2022 release Death is an integral part of the cycle of human existence, and Te Whakakaokao has created new terms that relate to this domain. Kaikauhoa has been added to convey the concept of pallbearers, while Whakatakataka tūpāpaku may be used to describe funeral directors. The term Whakatahe refers to miscarriages, stillbirths, and abortions. Returning to the world of light, two new top terms have been created to express significant new concepts that did not align with any of the top terms in the previous structure. Whakaruruhau is an all-encompassing term for all aspects of shelter, whether tangible or intangible. It spans topics ranging from Moenga (Beds and bedding) to Wharau (Temporary dwellings and shelters). A related but different top term Hangatanga has been created to describe physical constructions that are connected to the land and are built by humans rather than naturally formed. Narrower concepts of Hangatanga include the new term Arawhiti (Bridges) and existing term Whare (Buildings). Love was another significant concept explored in this release. This is a complex area in Te Ao Māori, with many different terms in use for specific kinds of love or in particular contexts. After much discussion, the term Aroha was added to convey the idea of love expressed as an emotion, encompassing charity, passion, compassion, care, empathy, sympathy and affection as well as romantic love. While this term may seem very broad in application, this is consistent with the scope of Aroha within mātauranga Māori ways of knowing. Te Whakakaokao has also clarified the structure linking the existing terms Pou rāhui, Pou whenua, Poupou, Poutāhuhu, Poutokomanawa, Poutuarongo and Tohu maumahara. The broader term Pou was created to describe the general category of pou as upright posts intended to be anchored in the ground or attached to a structure. It may be applied as a generic term representing all kinds of pou when a more specific term is not available. The new term Petihana Reo Māori was created to describe the 1972 petition to recognise and revitalise te reo Māori. This is very timely in the context of the fiftieth anniversary of the presentation of the Petihana Reo Māori to Parliament. While Te Whakakaokao generally does not create terms for documents such as petitions, appropriate headings in other thesauri are lacking and the new term offers much needed access. We have added a range of topics which may be useful for resources describing traditional or contemporary clothing, sewing, weaving or textile arts. These include: Pākē kārure (a waist or shoulder garment made from long strands of twisted muka), Tui paparangarua (Quilting), Whakatipu (Rain capes), Patui (Bone or wooden needles), Ngira (Contemporary sewing needles), Pūrere tuitui (Sewing machines) and Tohunga raranga (Weavers). On a related note, the term Hīnātore was also created. While Hīnātore literally refers to phosphorescent light, it also describes inspiration or a creative spark in the context of artistic or inventive processes. Finally, as a taster for the many other interesting additions in this release, you will see new terms for Akoranga koiri (Physical education), Kaipuke (Ships), Kurī ārahi (Guide dogs), Matawā (Clocks), Moenga (Beds and bedding) and Papa tākaro (Playing fields).

Kia ora koutou, Next week’s free CORE e-forum looks like a useful one so I thought it worth highlighting. Ngā mihi, Anoushka Anoushka McGuire | Team Leader, Cataloguing Team 1, National Library of New Zealand Te Puna Mātauranga o Aotearoa Direct Dial: +64 4 470 4524 | www.natlib.govt.nz<http://www.natlib.govt.nz/> The National Library of New Zealand is part of the Department of Internal Affairs From: core-eforum(a)groups.io <core-eforum(a)groups.io> On Behalf Of Nicole Lewis Sent: Thursday, 13 October 2022 4:45 am To: core-eforum(a)groups.io Subject: [core-eforum] October e-Forum: Cataloging: Training, Learning, and Doing Please consider joining us for next week’s e-Forum! Cataloging: Training, Learning, and Doing October 18-19, 2022 Moderated by Liz Simmons, Jennifer Eustis, and Joy DuBose Please join us for an e-forum discussion. It's free and open to everyone! Each day, discussion begins and ends at: Pacific: 7 a.m. – 3 p.m. Mountain: 8 a.m. – 4 p.m. Central: 9 a.m. – 5 p.m. Eastern: 10 a.m. – 6 p.m. Whether you perform original cataloging or copy cataloging, you are an integral part to the management of library resources. Cataloging is at once a community-focused task and often very independent. Let’s learn from each other. * What are some authority resources you use most often to ensure you are following standard practices? * How do you go about cataloging a new resource type that you are unfamiliar with? * How have your workflows changed over the last few years? * How was that change met and implemented? * What new skills are you learning? * What advantages and disadvantages have you experienced when learning news skills during and after the pandemic? * What is an interesting or cool material that presents a cataloging challenge? How was that challenge met? * What material would you like to learn about cataloging, given the chance? Moderators Liz Simmons is Systems & Electronic Services Librarian at Genesee Community College in New York. Prior to moving into this position, she served as the cataloging librarian and still manages cataloging, along with two part-time clerks. Jennifer Eustis is one of the Metadata Librarians at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. She works primarily with eResources and batch services and enjoys learning new skills. Joy DuBose is an Assistant Professor and the Special Collections/Projects cataloger at Mississippi State University. During her time there she has worked on a variety of materials from VR programming, non-English materials, electronic resources, and architectural samples, such as concrete. What Is an e-Forum? A Core e-forum provides an opportunity for librarians to discuss matters of interest, led by a moderator, through the e-forum discussion list. The e-Forum discussion list works like an email listserv: register your email address with the list, and then you will receive messages and communicate with other participants through an email discussion. Most e-forums last two days. Registration on the list is necessary to participate, but it's free.

National Library of New Zealand Policy Statements available in the new RDA Toolkit
by Anoushka McGuire 30 Sep '22

30 Sep '22

Tēnā koutou/Greetings to you all, The National Library of New Zealand has reached a significant milestone in its implementation of the new RDA Toolkit by loading a test set of Policy Statements to the RDA Toolkit. Following the September 2022 release, these are now visible at https://access.rdatoolkit.org/<https://aus01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Faccess.rd…>. Where are the Policy Statements? You can explore our Policy Statements in the Toolkit via the link in the Policies tab or by selecting ‘NLNZ PS’ from the menu at the top right of any of the element pages. If the NLNZ Policy Statements don’t appear in the list, you may have to update the settings in your Views. What Policy Statements are included? As this is a test, we have only loaded a small set of the total Policy Statements that we have completed. We have loaded Policy Statements for the Manifestation entity only, including 350 Manifestation elements. This is a total of 2232 individual Policy Statements. Our aim is to have Policy Statements at every element in the RDA Toolkit plus at all options on Entity and Guidance pages. If you don’t see any Policy Statements on a page, it simply means we didn’t include them for this test load. What about supporting documentation? Throughout the NLNZ Policy Statements you’ll see references to the NLNZ Guidance. This is a document to support cataloguers to use the NLNZ Policy Statements in conjunction with the RDA Toolkit, similar to the Metadata Guidance Documentation<https://aus01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.loc.g…> produced by the Library of Congress and Program for Co-operative Cataloguing (LC-PCC). Right now the link is pointing to a temporary document<https://aus01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Faccess.rd…> in the RDA Toolkit. The NLNZ guidance will be made available later, together with other supporting documentation and the NLNZ Application Profile. This is really exciting, where can I find out more information? There will be a presentation about the work that the NLNZ has been doing to prepare for switching to the new RDA Toolkit at the upcoming LIANZA CatSIG professional development webinar series on Thursday October 27. See the LIANZA events calendar<https://aus01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Flianza.or…> for more details and to register. If you have any specific questions you’d like answered, or something you’d particularly like to see in this presentation please email us before Friday 21 October. You can email the NLNZ cataloguing teams at nznb(a)dia.govt.nz<mailto:nznb@dia.govt.nz> or me directly at anoushka.mcguire(a)dia.govt.nz<mailto:anoushka.mcguire@dia.govt.nz> Anoushka Anoushka McGuire | Team Leader, Cataloguing Team 1, National Library of New Zealand Te Puna Mātauranga o Aotearoa Direct Dial: +64 4 470 4524 | www.natlib.govt.nz<http://www.natlib.govt.nz/> The National Library of New Zealand is part of the Department of Internal Affairs
