Data Resource Center The purpose of the Resource Center is to assist in researching and identifying ways to increase the success of project planning, development, and management. ALU LIKE, Inc. maintains a comprehensive data collection in its Research and Evaluation Unit and the Native Hawaiian Library. The Native Hawaiian Data Resource Center (NHDRC) is available for research and reference for all those who are interested in data relating to Native Hawaiians, especially data on demographic, education, health, and other socioeconomic characteristics. The NHDRC is an Affiliate of the Census Bureau's State Data Center and, as such, is a depository of Census data publications and computer products from which Native Hawaiian data are extracted and compiled for public use. Cooperative relationships with public/private agencies and institutions have made available additional Native Hawaiian data generated upon ALU LIKE's requests. Many of the studies and reports which ALU LIKE has published on Native Hawaiians throughout the years were done in coordination with other agencies and institutions. The Data Resource Center collection consists of various types of materials, ranging from books, reports, and studies to Census publications, legislative materials, directories and bibliographies. Most of the collection deals with Native Hawaiians and related materials. The over 4000 documents in the collection can be accessed from the online Catalog The Document Classification System for the collection is arranged according to subject matter under five major indexes: 1. 1000s - Needs Indicators 2. 2000s - Resources 3. 3000s - Genealogy 4. 4000s - Census - State Data Center 5. 6000s - Evaluation Materials can be photocopied at $.25 per page, and reports generated by ALU LIKE are individually priced and can be purchased from the library.
