Kia Ora! Welcome to the Te Punga Project, the University of Auckland Library's entry in the 2007 3M Innovation Awards.

Te Punga is an interactive online tutorial focusing on key skills for using the Library's Voyager catalogue. Taking two years from conception to completion, the tutorial is the result of a collaborative project between the University Library and the Centre for Flexible and Distance Learning.

The submission features a set of printable pages corresponding to the entry criteria, and makes use of the tutorial's distinctive wrapping: a graphic novel.

Te Punga is accessible from LEARN, the Library's homepage. You can also "jump out" to it from the chapters in this submission.

Wondering about the Te Punga concept? Turn up the sound and click "Te Punga is..." to the right of this page.

Please join us as we show how Te Punga represents an excellent example of innovation!
