Title: Help with Newspaper lookup NZ Herald.COMPLETED.
Post by: gereon on Sunday 25 September 11 03:24 BST (UK)

Im hoping that someone can help with a NZ Herald lookup.
The details are,Life Sentence for Murder,NZ Herald,15th June 1977,page 3.If someone is able to assist, due to the sensitive nature,perhaps it would be better to PM me.It occurs to me that as the event happened in Waitara that perhaps it was mentioned in the Taranaki newspapers.If any more information is needed please dont hesitate to ask.                                                              Many thanks in advance.gereon.

Hi
someone will no doubt offer
but I find the ask a librarian service at auckland library EXCELLENT  ;D
and they deserve  a big shout out, when you can give them such clear instructions of what you want
It may be worth trying them first

Good luck
I'm not a card holder and it doesn't seem to matter
I supose if people asked for too many they may charge, but they usually email the scan
