  1. Keyword searching is the best approach, particularly if you know words from the title. For example: Auckland housing, greenhouse gas, kauri, voters, watercourse assessment, walkable. For title and subject searches, the more keywords or phrases the better. For example: changes in indigenous ecosystems, Auckland Plan 2050.
  2. At the search results page, use the sort by options "latest" for recently published reports. Use the "list" layout options to display a list of your search results. "List" and "Grid" buttons, right side of the search results page. 
  3. Search using a publication’s number (if known): TR2023/5, TR2024/7, TP19, TP58, TP197 etc. For a list of all council technical reports for a particular year use this search: TR2022 TR2023 TR2024 etc
  4. Search using an author’s name: Craig Fredrickson, J A Allpress, Kathryn. If you only know the author's family name, search for that.
  5. Search using geographic names, including names of local boards: Albert-Eden, Ponsonby, Manukau, Waikato etc
  6. For a subject or topic approach, click on the images on the home page: People, Natural Environment, Economy etc
