Turnbull Library Record Call for Articles

The Friends of the Turnbull Library are now inviting contributions for the 2026 issue of the Turnbull Library Record. Published yearly by the Alexander Turnbull Library in association with the Friends of the Turnbull Library, the Turnbull Library Record is the longest-running humanities journal in Aotearoa New Zealand.

The journal publishes information relating to the activities of the Turnbull Library, as well as articles covering a wide range of research relevant to its collections, with special emphasis on the societies and cultures of Aotearoa New Zealand and the Pacific Islands. Its purpose is both to increase knowledge of the collections by showing their scope and richness, and to highlight the ways researchers are using them.

The deadline for submitting articles is 19 December 2025. Publication is scheduled for September 2026.

Past issues of the Turnbull Library Record are available here.
