The traditional Marshallese word, "Alele," which means "the basket which holds the tools, treasures and resources needed for everyday life," is also the name of Majuro's public library, museum and Marshall Islands Depository and is synonymous with Library and Archive in Marshallese. The theme of the conference, "Jaketo Jaketak Kobban Alele Eo," translated from the Marshallese, means "Take out of the 'alele,' and use it and share it." The proceedings include a welcoming speech, preface and acknowledgements, and a keynote address by Karen M. Peacock, as well as 11 papers: (1) "Library Development in the Marshall Islands" (Honorable Christopher J. Loeak, Minister of Education); (2) "Ennaanin Etto News from the Past: Telling Our Stories by Using Folklore in Storytelling" (Margaret B. Edmundson); (3) "Health Education through Music: Marshall Islands 'Youth to Youth in Health'" (Marita Edwin); (4) "The PIALA Project: Search, Find and Other (Part II)" (Elsa Veloso, Judy Caldwell, Dakio Syne, Iris Falcam and Helen Danosos); (5) "Reading is Learning Who You Are and About Your Health" (Justina Langidrik); (6) "More than Meets the Ear: A Marshallese Example of Folklore Method and Study for Pacific Collections" (Phillip H. McArthur); (7) "'Jitdam Kabeel' Using PREL Resources" (Hilda C. Heine and Franda Fang Liu); (8) "Accessing Western Medical Information" (Claire Hamasu); (9) "Bountiful Harvest: Aquaculture and Agriculture Information Services for the Pacific" (Eileen Herring); (10) 'Waan Aelon Kein: Jodrikdrik Nan Jodrikdrik Ilo Ejmour' The 'Canoes of These Islands' Project and Marshall Islands 'Youth to Youth in Health'" (Alson J. Kelen and Dennis Alessio); and "Picture This! The Use of Graphics in Libraries" (Margo Vitarelli). The PIALA Resolution on Internet Access and a list of contributors is also included.

PIALA '96 in the Marsha Ils extends that theme by using the traditional Marshallese word Ale le meaning "the basket which holds the tools, treasures and resources needed for everyday life." Ale le is also the name of Majuro's public library, museum and Marshall Islands Depository and is synonymous with Library and Archive in Marshallese. Jaketo Jalcetak Kobban Ale le Eo translated from Marshallese means, "Take out of the alele, use it and share it." During PIALA '96, we will explore ways to identify the local resources we find on our islands and make them available from our Ale le to our users. We will also explore ways to share our treasures with each other, across the Pacific and perhaps, the world. By sharing our treasures, we increase our knowledge, pride, and understanding of ourselves and others. iv 6 Preface and Acknowledgments These PIALA '96 Proceedings continue the tradition of publishingpapers presented at the annual meetings of the Pacific Islands Association of Libraries and Archives (PIALA).Again, the papers presented at the 6th annual conference have been gathered togetherfor the benefit of librarians, archivists, educators and others interested in the Pacific islands. Beginning with PIALA '91, our first PIALA meeting, convened ina traditional bai in Koror, Palau, each succeeding meeting has had itsown firsts and special distinctions. During this PIALA '96 meeting in Majuro, another firstwas established. The first PIALA Resolution was passed by the membership. Long remembered too will be the beautiful traditionalMarshallese handwoven welcoming baskets of food and flowers brought by thewomen of the Tomeing clan of the Northern chain, led by Leroij Thelma Netwan and Leroij Tiolang Jeik. As for all previous PIALA meetings, the success of PIALA '96 wouldnot have been possible without the generous support and efforts of many individuals and organizations. Much of the credit for the outstanding conference was due

  • Marshall Islands Fifth National Report Convention on Biological Diversity
    Republic of the Marshall Islands Fifth National Report Convention on Biological Diversity Office of Environmental Planning Policy Coordination Majuro, Republic of the Marshall Islands February 2017 1 Executive Summary This 5th National Report for the Republic of the Marshall Islands provides an update on the biodiversity status and trends, as well as progress towards the implementation of the Strategic Plan for Biodiversity 2011-2020 including the Aichi Biodiversity Target 2020. The report is divided into three main parts with part one focusing on the importance of biodiversity to the people, the state and threats to biodiversity and the implications of changes to biodiversity; part two focuses on the actions and implementation of the national biodiversity strategy and action plan; and part three focuses on alignment of national targets to the Aichi Biodiversity Targets. This report is the end product of a consultative process undertaken through the development of the national blueprint for conservation areas plan and the 2016 State of Environment report for RMI. The value of biodiversity to the wellbeing of Marshallese remains critical and it continues to inspire communities and the government to actively pursue actions and policies in order to safeguard it for future generations. Biodiversity is the cornerstone for economic opportunities and development of the country. It strengthens cultural ties of the current population to their fore-parents and through this connection provides the knowledge for community to instill good practices for the conservation of resources. Some major key drivers continue to cause significant impacts to RMI’s biodiversity and environment. Old challenges such as the fallout from nuclear testing and bombing of atolls combined with climate change and associated extreme weather events (severe and increasingly frequent typhoon events and drought) are seriously challenging the viability of communities in many of the atolls in RMI.
