Heritage


Heritage services and resources are on the 2nd floor of the Central Library. You can find books on New Zealand and the Pacific Islands, including large collections of Māori, local history and genealogy resources. You can also access Palmerston North's council and community archives here (The Ian Matheson City Archives). Some records relate to the wider Manawatū.

Staff are available to help you with your local history research, e.g. information on local families, buildings, businesses, and organisations.
