This capstone focuses on developing an Arizona offline digital library for tribal communities that will aid in building towards a pilot project in areas with limited access to a reliable internet connection, especially where infrastructure support for reliable internet service may be a long-term goal. A beta digital library has been created, and resources focused on language, and cultural preservation for the Hualapai tribe continue to be curated for the collection. The project will provide an opportunity for communities to access various resources created by and relevant to their community without needing access to the internet or electricity.
