Majuro: preserving papers, a canoe house and tracing water
Alele’s archive project paired paper conservation with research access through digitised copies. WAM’s Delap Canoe House supports vocational training, while a 2020 engineering report maps the airport catchment’s route to treatment.

A place worth remembering
Protecting papers while widening access
The IMLS completed-project account describes Alele’s work on Joachim deBrum’s documents, which span the 1880s to the 1940s. Staff cleaned and rehoused the paper records before scanning; the project’s stated aim was to safeguard those originals while making research copies more widely available.[1]
