We are now inviting contributions for the 2026 issue of Turnbull Library Record.
This is the longest-running humanities journal in New Zealand, published yearly by the Alexander Turnbull Library in association with the Friends. It publishes information relating to the activities of the library, as well as articles covering a wide range of research topics, with special emphasis on the societies and cultures of New Zealand and the Pacific Islands. Its purpose is to increase knowledge of the library’s collections by showing their scope and richness, and the ways researchers are using them. Articles or pictorial essays should be between 2,000–6,000 words. Contributions not previously published are welcome.
All contributions are subject to peer review.
Articles should have a scholarly underpinning and be written in a lively and accessible manner for an informed but not specialist readership. The deadline for submissions is Monday 1 December 2025.
