Unitec libraries update

Unitec's physical library spaces remain closed.


If you make a request through the library system, our Subject Librarians will contact you.

You do not need to return items currently as all items due back have been renewed until the start of Semester 2, at the end of July.

If, however, you need to return your library resources, bring them to the Mt Albert campus and place them in the returns bins at one of the entrances to Te Puna (by Breaktime or by Student Central.)

Please contact us at library@unitec.ac.nz if you have any questions.

Rotuman Language Week 2020

Noa’ia ‘e mauri,

Rotuman Language Week is being held from Sunday 10 May – Saturday 16 May, 2020. 

The theme for this year is "Putua ‘os fäega ma ‘os ag fak Rotuma - Nurturing our Rotuman identity through language and culture".

Rotuma officially joins Pacific Language Week celebrations in Aotearoa with the support from Ministry for Pacific Peoples. To celebrate the beginning of 2020's Pacific Language Week, we would like to acknowledge our Rotuman community in Aotearoa for sharing your beautiful culture and language with us. The Rotuman language is listed on the UNESCO list of endangered languages. The island nation, Rotuma lies approximately 465 km to the north of Fiji Islands.

Unitec Library has resources in electronic version to learn more about the island nation, Rotuma. Check out the Unitec Library catalogue and our Pacific subject guide.
