As Hawaiʻi continues to revitalize our culture and language, libraries and archives have an important role in preserving and providing access to ʻike. However, current forms of access to ʻike in libraries remains inadequate and inappropriate for Hawaiʻi. To improve intellectual access to ʻike and better represent Hawaiian knowledge in libraries, this study examines Hawaiian epistemologies, and the cultural context of knowledge transmission, as informs knowledge organization. The research is contextualized within the broader Indigenous context of struggle and reclamation of cultural knowledges and ways of being in the world. As such, it is necessary to acknowledge and address the ways in which libraries, as institutions, have upheld Western imperialism and colonization, and maintained the status quo, in ways that have resulted in inequities and injustices against Indigenous peoples, knowledges, and lands. Centering the moʻolelo, or stories and experiences, of kūpuna, and other Hawaiian cultural and language practitioners, this study contributes to the ongoing work to the decolonize and de-occupy Hawaiʻi. Drawing from moʻokūʻauhau and moʻolelo, this study seeks to surface and empower ʻike Hawaiʻi and Kanaka methodologies of knowledge organization. It identifies a Hawaiian knowledge domain and framework that could serve as the foundation for a Hawaiian knowledge organization system. Such a system will improve access to the ʻike Hawaiʻi amassed in libraries. Focus groups and talk story sessions with Hawaiian scholars and experts provide insight about Hawaiian ways of categorizing, organizing, and transmitting knowledge. Using the frameworks provided through ʻāina, moʻokūʻauhau, and moʻolelo, this study invites readers to nānā i ke kumu, or look to the source, for enlightenment and consciousness.
