Joint Australian and NZ Standards
Many New Zealand standards are joint standards with Australia. They will have an AS/NZS code.
For Australian standards not joint with New Zealand contact your Librarian. We need to purchase them separately.
Some ISO, IEC, EU and BSI standards have also been adopted in New Zealand.
