The Office of Hawaiian Affairs offers this digital collection of historic Hawaiian Newspapers, ranging from 1834 to 1980, that is made available through various collaborations and partnerships with the Awaiaulu, Bishop Museum, DL Consulting Ltd. & Ulukau.
Joan Hori, former Hawaiian Collection Curator, Special Collections, Hamilton Library, University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa, prepared this document in 2001. The Nūpepa Kuokoa is considered the first Hawaiian independent nūpepa.
The Hawai‘i Sea Grant developed this website which displays the original Hawaiian newspaper article and also the English language transcription. These initial selected articles are focused on fisheries and indications of changing climate in the islands.
The ʻIke Wai project look to our nūpepa as an integral component in our research— directing and educating both the community and the research team in our understanding of wai in both Kona, Hawaiʻi and ʻEwa, Oʻahu.
