Archives and Libraries

Archives collect and preserve original documents of organizations such as churches or governments. Libraries generally collect published sources such as books, maps, and microfilm.
If you plan to visit a repository, contact them and ask for information about their collection, hours, services, and fees. Ask if they require you to have a reader’s ticket (a paper indicating you are a responsible researcher) to view the records, and ask how to obtain one.
Although the records you need may be in an archive or library, the FamilySearch Library may have microfilmed and/or digitized copies of them.

-The registration of births and deaths in New Caledonia is undertaken by civil status services. There is a civil status service in each of the 33 municipalities of New Caledonia. By right, the mayor of each municipality is the civil status officer, but this officer may delegate some functions to a deputy, a municipal councillor or a municipal agent. The registrar must record all events that take place in the municipality (births, marriages, deaths, etc.). Information of birth and death registration in each municipality is sent to the [https://www.isee.nc/ '''Institut de la statistique et des études économiques (ISEE) Nouvelle-Calédonie'''], where it is collated.<ref>"CIVIL REGISTRATION AND VITAL STATISTICS IN NEW CALEDONIA", Pacific CRVS, UNICEF,  https://spccfpstore1.blob.core.windows.net/digitallibrary-docs/files/b8/b822cdb064fb8e6f1e0d1e9ffdc664b8.pdf?sv=2015-12-11&sr=b&sig=TzNv0anTKc4wlXLft2u4P%2FYoAFX7kS5Vxa98Km9Pgbs%3D&se=2023-07-18T22%3A39%3A54Z&sp=r&rscc=public%2C%20max-age%3D864000%2C%20max-stale%3D86400&rsct=application%2Fpdf&rscd=inline%3B%20filename%3D%22CRVS_New_Caledonia_2021.pdf%22, accessed 19 January, 2023.</ref>
