make sure you get them all.

Baiba Berzins and I will copy and bundle them up to send to the HR Petitions Committee in time we hope to get on the agenda for their first meeting in February.
And look out for the news coverage (we hope) of the Adelaide demonstration at the Community cabinet meeting today. Of course I hope everyone who can,
will get there to join it. I gather that three people are meeting Senator Joe Judwig this afternoon thanks to the good organising going on in SA.
Please make sure someone takes photos to send to the list and to put on the facebook site.
Have to say that the South Australians are making the running on this campaign right now - Good for you!

General Information
Archives New Zealand has statutory responsibility to ensure that full and accurate records of the affairs of central and local government are preserved and are accessible to the public.
Archives New Zealand has in its holdings 23 books of national statistics for the years 1840 to 1855, (known as the Blue Books). The majority of the books are hand written in a variety of inks. Whilst some have retained their clarity, others have faded considerably. The books are bound and average 286 pages per volume.
Archives New Zealand seeks tenders from service providers who can create high quality digital images from the original works. A range of compression options should be offered. Our intention is to make pages available online and to reproduce high quality prints as and when required.
Inspection of the volumes can be arranged with Alan Ferris, contact details below.
Tenders will be accessed against three essential criteria:
• The original archives must be handled to standards acceptable to Archives New Zealand.
• The work must be completed by 30 June 2008.
• Quotes for the work should stipulate the methods to be used and the unit cost per method of digital capture.
