More information
Part of the Knowledge Basket product. The Knowledge Basket was launched in November 1994. The first database to be made available to the public was the (then) GP Print Legislation database collection in November 1994. This was quickly followed by Newztext — an extensive database of full text newspapers and journal articles. As an additional resource to the full text, a database of indexed records to New Zealand publications was established, first as Newzindex, then as additional indexes were made available to The Knowledge Basket, this grew into the New Zealand Index.
EPIC is a New Zealand initiative that provides access to electronic resources (e-resources) through a consortium of member libraries. EPIC produces guides to specific databases in PDF and Powerpoint format.
