Do you have your grandad’s Poll Tax Certificate, your granny’s cheung saam, old war bonds or your Association’s minutes? Do you use your phone or digital camera to take photos? How do we keep them all safe for future generations?
Family books, photographs and papers connect us to our ancestors, their lives, and thoughts. They are an invaluable resource for future generations. Vicki-Anne Heikell, Alexander Turnbull Library’s Field Conservator will present a seminar to help you care for your own collections, and those of your community organisations. Participants are encouraged to bring a family item to the workshop. There will be opportunities for one-on-one conservation advice on your treasures and hands-on practical activities.
The second session will talk about managing your digital files. During this session we will talk about why we need to care for digital files, what good file management looks like, the care and handling of physical storage media like USB sticks and CDs, as well as good practice in file naming, file organisation, back-ups, and using the cloud.
Have you been taking meeting notes and saving them to your computer for years? Do you share interesting snippets on Facebook or email your friends and family? If the answer is yes, then welcome to the wonderful world of personal digital archiving. This is a session for you

Author Mike Grimshaw discusses his book
Mike Grimshaw discusses his new book, 'Bishops, Boozers, Brethren & Burkas', published in June 2019 as part of the New Zealand Cartoon Archive’s monograph series. Grimshaw will use cartoons from 1860s to the present day to discuss the way religion in New Zealand has been represented by our cartoonists.
History via cartoons
There is no general history of religion in New Zealand, so this book is a unique contribution, providing not only a cartoon history of religion in this country but also a history via cartoons.
Changing views on religion
From the 1860s, settlers viewed issues of religion and politics as problematic, but in the main, religion remained part of the fabric of society. However, religion was more of a concern for our cartoonists as New Zealand became an increasingly secular nation from the 1970s onwards. This not only reflects the generation of cartoonists whose work was published from the 1970s but also a shift in New Zealand society more generally.
Overall, when religion was less of a contested identity and influence, cartoonists tended to leave religion — and the church alone. However, as the country became, very quickly, a secular society from the 1970s onwards, religion was a target of cartoonists. Religion and the religious were increasingly presented as representing religious and social attitudes and beliefs regarded as out of step with a modern society.

A founding series editor for Radical Theologies and Philosophies (Palgrave Macmillan) and founding co-editor of Continental Thought & Theory (), he toils at the intersections of radical theology, continental thought and cultural and social theory.
