Auckland Libraries

In this episode, we make a connection with poetry, poets, and the Auckland Central City Library. Research Librarian Elspeth Orwin takes us on a journey beyond the poetry book collection by sharing the voices of poets who interestingly also have a strong association with Libraries. We also meet and talk with poet and artist Ta Ilui who is both a regular Auckland Libraries user and who has contributed his own original work in the recent publication Rough Lives Speak. See a list of references for this episode below or get in touch with us by emailing libraryresearch@aucklandcouncil.govt.nz and we’ll make sure you can find the collection items of your interest.
