Ngā Ūpoko Tukutuku / Māori Subject Headings

“Ngā Ūpoko Tukutuku has been developed as part of the Māori Subject Headings Project jointly sponsored by LIANZA [the Library & Information System of New Zealand Aotearoa], Te Rōpū Whakahau and the National Library of New Zealand. The list of over 1,000 headings and their associated references is appropriate for use at a public library level.” “In the Māori worldview, aspects of taha tinana/the people, taha wairua/the spiritual and taha hinengaro/the mind are intrinsically connected and related to each other. This model recognises both the traditional and contemporary perspectives.” Also see http://www.anztla.org/Conference08/PostConf/East_notes.pdf
