The Turnbull Library Record is a peer-reviewed scholarly journal in the humanities published yearly by the Turnbull Library in association with the Friends of the Turnbull Library. It contains a wide range of material, with special emphasis on the societies of New Zealand, Australia, and the islands of the Pacific. Other topics of relevance are the history of printing, early printed books, John Milton and his contemporaries, and fine printing. These are areas in which the Alexander Turnbull Library’s own collections and research interests are particularly strong.
The Record is distributed free to all members of the Friends.
Volumes 1-49 (1940-2017) have been digitised and are available via the National Library.
Printed back copies are available to the public on application to the Secretary, Friends of the Turnbull Library, PO Box 12-186, Wellington ($30 per copy from 2020 onwards, earlier issues $20 each, including packing and postage).
