THE WRITTEN RECORD OF HAWAII'S WOMEN:
An Annotated Guide to Sources of Information in Hawaii

INTRODUCTION
The Foundation for Hawaii Women's History is the sponsor of the second edition of the annotated bibliography, The Written Record of Hawaii's Women, as well as the earlier 1984 edition with the same title.

The Foundation, incorporated in 1983, hopes that this updated bibliography will further increase the awareness of the many resources on women in Hawaii, and encourage the reading and study of the subject.

Dates of Coverage
This new edition incorporates the 1984 edition and titles omitted from that edition, and adds new titles published from 1983 to 1999.
Scope of Coverage
English language sources only, mainly from the University of Hawaii at Manoa Library and archival collections in Honolulu.

There are two general categories of sources:

BOOKS, REPORTS, ETC. and NEWSLETTERS

Works entirely on women, some titles with parts of the book on women, especially where otherwise there is little information on the subject. Includes books, theses, dissertations, reports, papers. Articles from The Hawaiian Journal of History are included. Novels and other literary works are excluded except where biographical information is included. Reference sources and newsletters are listed separately.

MANUSCRIPTS AND ORAL HISTORIES

Manuscripts include the collected papers of women who lived and worked in Hawaii and the records of organizations whose members were primarily women. Oral history transcripts are listed separately.

Diacritical Marks

The glottal stop and macron in the Hawaiian language are used in the annotations, in the title if they appear in the title, and for Hawaii government agencies.

Please note: Diacritical marks for Hawaiian words do not appear in this version of the bibliography. A pdf copy of the document, with diacritical marks, is available at http://www.hawaii.edu/speccoll/womensbib.pdf

Paper copies of the bibliography are in the collections of Hawaii's public and University system libraries.

Notes

Birth and death dates are given in parentheses.
