You might be surprised to know that the LIANZA Office consists of only three people.
Our executive director, communications advisor and office and design manager are a tight team who get things done. If you have any questions, need help, or simply have a brilliant idea or two - get in touch!
LIANZA Presidents serve a three-year presidential term, with consecutive one-year terms as President-elect, President, and Immediate Past President.
The three Presidents work closely together to deliver on LIANZA's strategic mission and strategic plan.
The LIANZA Council provide governance, policy and strategic direction for the Association and is made up of the three presidents: President, President-elect, Immediate Past President, a treasurer, and from 2023, four elected and two appointed council members.
LIANZA has active regional or special interest communities.
These communities use LIANZA as a platform to connect and get things done. Special interest communities (SIGs) are formed by our members, for our members.
LIANZA wouldn't be the strong organisation it is today without the hard work of the volunteers on our standing committees, advisory groups, project working groups and various other volunteer roles.
Te Rōpū Whakahau is the national body representing Māori within the library and information profession in Aotearoa New Zealand.
LIANZA's formal partnership with Te Rōpū Whakahau began in 1995 - the goal of this partnership was to provide mutual support and to set a visible example of the partnership principles described in the Treaty of Waitangi.
This partnership structure changed with the new LIANZA governance structure in 2022.
On July 5, 2024 a new partnership agreement was signed.
This partnership agreement solidifies our special relationship and starts a stronger relationship between the two associations. LIANZA is excited to work with Te Rōpū Whakahau in supporting and empowering Māori librarians and information professionals.
Tōtara wāhirua, he kai nāte ahi. A split totara is food for fire. Division and a lack of unity, lead to failure.
