SOCIETY OF GREAT BRITAIN ------NATIONAL PHILATELIC SOCIETY

A GUIDE TO THE LIBRARY AND A LISTING OF BOOKS AND PERIODICALS RELATING TO NEW ZEALAND AND THE PACIFIC ISLANDS

Introduction : Since April 2007 the books and journals owned by the New Zealand Society of Great Britain, and which previously formed its Library, have been on permanent loan to the National Philatelic Society (NPS). Those books and journals, and later additions, are now managed as part of the NPS Library.

For several years until mid 2012 the NPS Library was housed in Freeling House, which is part of Royal Mail’s Mount Pleasant complex in London WC1. This was arranged courtesy of the British Postal Museum and Archive (BPMA), which for the moment continues to operate from the same building. However, much of the Mount Pleasant complex is being redeveloped and both the BPMA and the NPS must move out. The BPMA is due to move to nearby Calthorpe House by late 2014 and has secured initial funding for this from the Heritage Lottery Fund. The NPS Library, however, was required to move out in autumn 2012, and has for the time being moved all the material held in Freeling House to storage facilities at Bill Hill Park, near Wokingham, where some older material was already kept. Since it is not practicable to open these facilities to either NPS or NZSGB members on a regular basis, the NPS is currently examining options for a more accessible location for the Library, if possible alongside a new venue for its meetings.

Using the Library : NZSGB members are entitled to use the NPS Library on the same terms as NPS members and may borrow and request copies of material in the Library. Given the arrangements described above, browsing and borrowing in person are not currently practicable and so until further notice all transactions must be by e-mail, telephone or post.

Members wishing to borrow items or order photocopies should therefore put their requests in the first instance to the Library Liaison Officer by telephone or e-mail (details below). He will then contact the NPS and arrange to meet requests as expeditiously as possible. In some cases it may be possible to transact Library business at London meetings of the Society.

There is more information about the NPS and its Library, and an online catalogue that includes auction lists and exhibition material as well as books and journals, on the NPS website at www.ukphilately.org.uk/nps.

This Library Guide and List is intended to demonstrate the wealth of published material available on all aspects of New Zealand philately, to help expand your knowledge of current interests, resolve particular queries, or support research which may one day lead to publications that find their way into the Library for the benefit of others.

Queries and suggestions : If you have any queries on the operation of the Library or suggestions for the addition of further items, whether newly published or older material, please contact the Library Liaison Officer.
