I wanna be a librarian

It seems doubly appropriate in the midst of New Zealand Music Month to highlight New Zealand gothic/country/pop band Haunted Love's dark ode to librarians.

The Dunedin duo don twin-sets and pearls to dress-up as their book-stamping heros and punish a wayward library patron who breaks all the rules in this 4 minute film-noire pastiche.

Leave us a comment listing all the protocols our library defiler breaks and go in the draw to win some Haunted Love of your very own.

While we haven't got any Haunted Love in our library yet perhaps you could make do with something else from our New Zealand music collection.

So many books, so little coffee

We welcomed Theresa to the library fold today with another lengendary library morning tea which doubled as our contribution to New Zealand's biggest coffee break.

Wintec librarians, purveyors of fine coffee and chocolate cake, are doing their bit to help the world's coffee farmers work their way out of poverty by only imbibing fair trade coffee during our (small) coffee breaks. We apologise if the freshly brewed smell of fair trade coffee interrupts your study.
