Be aware that law enforcement can also use this particular database. However, you must OPT IN to allow your data to be accessible to them. So far, they have been using it to help identify unknown "Jane/John Doe" bodies and solve #ColdCase crimes.

For genealogists and historians, there are some updates to newspapers on Papers Past. A good update for Taranaki but the rest are pretty minor:
- Oamaru Mail (July-August 1916)
- Otago Daily Times (January-March 1886)
- Otago Witness (April 1909, December 1909)
- Taranaki Daily News (1936-1945)
- Timaru Herald (June 1913)
