Nūpepa Index

Goal

Co-create a Hawaiian language newspaper index to improve the discoverability of community-indexed information in Hawaiian language newspapers and pilot the application of HKOS to a sampling of records. The Nūpepa Index will combine community partner indexes (around 38,000 indexed entries) into a freely available open-source database and allow for future community-created indexes to be contributed.
