The role of libraries and archival collections in the preservation and revitalisation of indigenous knowledge : the case of revitalisation of te reo Māori [link]Paper  abstract   bibtex   
This paper discusses the role of libraries and archives in New Zealand in the revitalisation of te reo Māori. It represents the preliminary stage of a proposed study that will look at the wider issue of the role of libraries and archives in the preservation and transmission of Indigenous knowledges, particularly mātauranga Māori. Provides an historical background of the development of te reo as a written language, and a discussion of literature. Looks at the results of a brief survey of several libraries and an archival collection to gauge the current status of holdings of material in te reo, and how well (or how badly) these materials are promoted and used.
