Provenance Details
Provenance: Initial donation in 2002 appears to have been a copy loan, by which photocopies of the two typescript volumes were made and accessioned as MS-2002-186, along with the hospital magazines. Upon the death of Mrs Vanoosten in 2005, the original typescripts were left as part of her estate, allowing Heather Dixon, who holds power of attorney, to officially bequeath the two volumes to the Auckland Museum library in 2011.
