Christmas farewell + presents

Farewell from the Turitea Science Librarians
The Turitea Science Librarians (Bruce, Chris, and Noelene) are away from next week on leave. We 'reopen' on Monday 15th January 2007. We look forward to serving you again in the New Year. In the meantime if you require library assistance, do not hesitate to contact the library's Information Desk (ext 2121; email: AskLib@massey.ac.nz; or use the Ask A Question form).

To close the year we are pleased to announce are two free 'presents':

  • Transactions and Proceedings of the Royal Society of New Zealand
    Vol 1 1868 - Vol 88 1961: now online at http://rsnz.natlib.govt.nz/
    Now you can browse and search historic New Zealand science from your desktop! Contributors include: William Colenso, Thomas Hocken, Ernest Rutherford and many other Kiwi scholars and scientists. Recent volumes of RSNZ journals remain available at http://www.rsnz.org/publish/journals.php

  • Google Patents

    Find fulltext patents using the worlds leading search engine. Currently only US patents are available, but other countries will be included in due course. In the meantime, to find patents other countries (including New Zealand) check out our Patents page.
