Electoral rolls

Auckland Libraries provides onsite access to printed electoral rolls at selected branches across Tāmaki Makaurau.

Most libraries hold only the current printed electoral roll for their local area. The table below shows which libraries hold electoral rolls and the locations covered.

Important information

Printed electoral rolls can only be viewed onsite.

Due to legal requirements, library staff cannot:

• search recent electoral rolls for customers
• confirm whether someone is listed on the roll
• provide a person’s address from the roll
• supply copies or photographs of electoral roll entries

Customers must view electoral rolls themselves while visiting the library.

Historical electoral rolls

For older records, you can also use:

• Ancestry for New Zealand electoral rolls from 1853–2010 (available only onsite using library Wi-Fi or public computers)
• Central City Library (Research Central) for nationwide electoral rolls from 2011 onwards, plus older print and microfilm records, including 1989–2010
• Manukau Library (Research South) for selected historical electoral rolls with varied coverage
