Abstract

This paper describes how library and information science education in New Zealand has evolved to include Māori cultural components into the content of the curriculum. It considers the influence that the wider library and information profession, including the professional associations, LIANZA and Te Rōpū Whakahau, have had on these developments. The inclusion of 'indigenous knowledge paradigms' within the profession registration programme is described as is its effect on library and information education and the continuing professional development of library and information professionals in New Zealand. © 2014 Australian Library & Information Association.
