The Past Preserved The Alexander Turnbull Library Endowment Trust
The Alexander Turnbull Library Endowment Trust aims to support the Library’s work of collecting, preserving, and improving the dissemination of knowledge of New Zealand’s heritage. The Library needs additional funds for: • the acquisition of important historical items. Costs are rising dramatically, and the Library needs additional support if it is to compete; • the publication of manuscripts, maps, documents, photographs, paintings, prints, and other materials; • the continuation of its work in supporting research, publication, and exchanges among scholars.
How you can help • The Endowment Trust is seeking financial bequests for the purchase of materials for the collections. • The Research Fund is seeking financial bequests to help make the collections available through research, publications, conferences, seminars, and lectures. • The Library itself is seeking bequests of books, documents, paintings, drawings, family papers, and photographs that may be of historical value. Let us help you preserve your family heritage. All bequests will be recorded and acknowledged. For further information, please contact Mr L. A. Cameron, cbe, Chairman, Endowment Trust Board, at the Alexander Turnbull Library, PO Box 12-349, Wellington, New Zealand, phone (04) 474-3000.
