Twenty years ago, Ngā Ūpoko Tukutuku Māori Subject Headings emerged from a shared vision to ensure te reo Māori and mātauranga Māori could be described and discovered in ways that reflect Māori worldviews. Since then, it has become a nationally significant knowledge organisation system with international influence. As the first Indigenous subject heading system founded on a Māori worldview, it established an enduring precedent for Indigenous knowledge organisation.

This significant anniversary will be marked with a webinar on Wednesday 16 September at 3:30-4:30pm

Join Jacqueline Snee, Mark Crookston, and Rachel Esson leaders from Te Rōpū Whakahau, LIANZA, and the National Library of New Zealand as they reflect on the legacy of Ngā Ūpoko Tukutuku Māori Subject Headings, its impact over the past twenty years, and its future for generations to come.
