Kia ora koutou,

 

I hope you are all doing well. To celebrate Te Wiki o te reo Māori, I’ve worked with out Mātauranga Māori Advisor Geraldine to write an article showing how you can use Māori Subject Headings across a diverse range of books. We chose ten super varied books from our collections, assigned Ngā Upoko Tukutuku, and then wrote about that process of finding the right headings, and what it means in terms of antiracism and decolonisation. You can use Māori Subject Headings in MARC using 650 | $2 reo - there’s also a big bibliography, so I hope you find it interesting. Please feel free to get in touch if you have any questions, comments, or synergies!

I hope you are all staying safe and taking good care.

Mā te wā, naku noa,

Nina
