Meetings and Venue
Our meetings are held on a Saturday afternoon five times per year at the Tawa Union Church lounge, 6 Elena Place, Tawa, Wellington. The details of the meetings are advertised on the NZSG Events Calendar and on the NZSG MEM-LST message board. We alternate research days and guest speaker days, and our AGM is held in May.
We also attend advertised Family History Month events and other Branch/Group research days in the lower North Island. You will also see us at several Scottish and Caledonian events in the lower North Island.
Resources
We have a comprehensive range of Scottish research material including books, magazines, maps, CDs, and Microfiche. Items can be borrowed for a short period.

We publish a short newsletter prior to our meetings and also send out any relevant Scottish information as it is received. This information is sent to the people and groups on our email list.
We also publish the following booklet:

- Map Resources for Family History Research in Scotland
