Share your favourite place in Tāmaki Makaurau

The Team from Auckland Museum

Whether you’re an experienced writer or just starting out, we’re calling for poem submissions inspired by a place in Tāmaki Makaurau.

This online poetry project is a celebration of our city, inspired by a map of Auckland drawn up by Leslie Kelly in 1940. We’re collecting poems in the lead up to the opening of Tāmaki Herenga Waka: Stories of Auckland gallery in 2021.

Submit and pin your poem on our online map, and explore poems from others here.

Poll: what is the best way to pick up reserved books from Auckland Libraries?

Alan from Titirangi

Auckland Libraries have changed the way reserved books are picked up. Reserved books are now positioned on a shelf under a slot number which varies daily. If you have more than one book to pick up each book can come under a different slot number. See:
