Kete Horowhenua was launched nationally at Levin Library on 30th June 2007, 4pm.

Kete Horowhenua is a community built digital library of arts, cultural and heritage resources. It aims to get the private collections, memories and knowledge of our community sitting alongside our public collections. This article includes material presented at the Bridging Worlds Conference in Singapore, 16-17 October 2008.

Kete Horowhenua is a knowledge basket of images, audio, video and documents which are collected and catalogued by the community. The core code will be released as Kete V. 1.0 so that other communities can build their own Kete.
