Wilson Foundation<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Hoku shared the following about herself with the LIS Program:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>After seven years of college on the mainland, study abroad, and teaching English in Japan on the JET Program, I was feeling rather homesick. The next question was this: what would I do when I finally returned home? I\u02bbm the kind of person who always needs a plan of action, so winging it upon arrival was definitely not an option. When trying to puzzle my future out, I saw one person who knew where she was going, and she was going there fast: my fellow Kamehameha Schools alumna Kylie Ka\u02bbeo. Through her commitment to the community and her passion for libraries, I was inspired to pursue a degree in LIS like she did.<\/p>\n<p>Approximately one year later, I\u02bbm in library school as a part-time student and thanks to the H.W. Wilson Foundation scholarship, I\u02bbll be able to move to full-time status for the upcoming academic year. When not in class, I can usually be found at work in the Richardson Law Library or \u02bbUlu\u02bbulu: The Henry Ku\u02bbualoha Giugni Moving Image Archive of Hawai\u02bbi. Although my next goal is working in the local public library system, working in these different settings with a wide cast of characters is proving to be a great experience. It\u02bbs funny how my life has come to revolve around libraries in such a short amount of time.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The LIS Program is pleased to announce that H\u014dk\u016b Ka\u02bbaha\u02bb\u0101ina was selected as a recipient of the 2017-2018 H.W.
