Scope and Content of Collection
The Japanese Hawaiian newspaper collection consists of Japanese language newspapers published in Hawaii. It is part of the
Hoji Shinbun Digital Collection, which is currently the world's largest online archive of open-access, full-image Japanese
American and other overseas Japanese newspapers. Most publications present a mix of content in Japanese and English, with
formats and the proportionality of Japanese/English often changing as a reflection of shifting business and social circumstances.
The collection focuses on Japan's modern diaspora, with particular attention to both Japanese Americans and other overseas
Japanese communities, especially during the rise and fall of the Empire of Japan.
