New Zealand Listener and Woman's Weekly digitisation project

The National Library recently announced that they have an agreement with Are Media to digitise the New Zealand Listener and New Zealand Woman's Weekly, with plans to add these titles to Papers Past over time (see: https://natlib.govt.nz/about-us/media/iconic-magazines-to-feature-on-papers-past). The first batch (1939-1959) is underway, and they are carrying out preparation work for the second batch (1960-1969) now.

 

Landfall Archive

The Landfall Archive (hosted by Otago University Press) offers for the first time free public access to the fine writing (and art) that appeared in the pages of the journal’s earliest issues.

This digital Landfall archive has two components:

  1. Searchable facsimile PDFs of the first 40 years of Landfall: every issue up to the end of 1986 (160 issues); and
  2. An index of every item published in Landfall up to Vol. 40 No. 4 (December 1986), searchable by author, title and keyword.

The digitisation of Landfall is an ongoing project. Further back issues will continue to be digitised and indexed.
