Presentation Description: July 2019 marked a significant moment in modern Hawaiian history as law enforcement arrested 35 kūpuna who are protecting Mauna Kea and reawakened a nation of Hawaiians and allies. Through social media, the messages of the Kū Kiaʻi Mauna movement have spread across ko Hawaiʻi pae ʻāina (Hawaiian archipelago), the United States, and around the world. Functioning much like the nūpepa ʻōlelo Hawaiʻi in the 19th century, social media platforms have become a place of discussion, scholarship, and art. Recognizing the importance of this historical moment, a group of librarians and archivists began to think of ways to preserve the content being created. Because social media archiving is so new to the field, there is no one template that fits all, especially for Hawaiʻi. In this presentation, we will discuss our process, challenges that we have already encountered, and the current state of the project.
