Abstract
This account describes a state-wide project in Hawaii involving librarian and teacher teams guiding high school students through their final academic culminating capstone projects. The chapter identifies key components of a community- centered approach to inquiry-based learning, namely, identifying community issues that mattered to the students, engaging community experts as mentors, and developing projects that had a broader societal focus. Along with a description of the training program for the instructional teams, the chapter focuses on the outcomes and insights gained by the students and by the teams working with them.
