The Hocken has just launched a new online service making the photographic collections housed at the Hocken Library more accessible to remote users.<\/p>\n

Over 33,000 images have been digitized, relating to people and places from all over New Zealand.\u00a0 A small portion of the Hocken\u2019s large shipping collection is also included.\u00a0 Copies of the images are available for purchase over the internet and a zoom function greatly assists in the use of the photographs for research purposes.<\/p>\n

Emails from readers are already arriving on a daily basis confirming that the site is proving an instant success.\u00a0 Coupled with the fact that the Photographs Collection database is also now available online, people are more able to see for themselves what we hold and direct specific questions and requests to staff.<\/p>\n
