Message for list: [Apologies for cross-posting] Tena tatou katoa E nga mana, e nga reo, e nga kaitiaki taonga katoa o Aotearoa, nei ra he maioha na matou o te komiti whiriwhiri o Nga Upoko Tukutuku. Following the release of 61 new terms in February, the National Library has created a file of all National Library catalogue records which use Maori Subject Headings. All of the headings that were affected due to the changes in February have been corrected in the file, so this is now up to date. The file will be available on the index page of the MSH thesaurus (http://mshupoko.natlib.govt.nz/mshupoko/index.htm) from today in either unicode UTF-8 or non-unicode MARC8 format, and can be used to update existing records. In other news, the Maori Subject Headings Project Team met in April for the first meeting of the year, where work continued on the list of requested terms. The focus areas for 2010 were decided to be: -Church -Social work -Nursing -Education -Sport -Media & Technology. Work was also done on some other headings, mainly animals. We hope to make these new headings publicly available shortly and will announce when that happens. The Maori Subject Headings Project Team have three meetings per year to work on the requested headings. The remaining meetings in 2010 are expected to be held in July and October.
