Course Reserves

Course reserves are items that instructors set aside for particular courses. Because the items are shared among the students in the course, they often have restrictions on how long they can be borrowed or whether or not they can be taken out of the library. See the Circulation Desk to borrow course reserves.

How many place names are there in the Hawaiian Islands? Even a rough estimate is impossible. Hawaiians named taro patches, rocks, trees, canoe landings, resting places in the forests, and the tiniest spots where miraculous events are believed to have taken place. And place names are far from static–names are constantly being given to new houses and buildings, streets and towns, and old names are replaced by new ones.
