Creating an online Hul'q'umi'num' dictionary for teachers and learners

This thesis is about a collaborative dictionary project for Hul'q'umi'num', the Island dialect of Halkomelem, a Salish language spoken in British Columbia, Canada. The goal of the project was to create a teachers' and learners' resource with words and sound, organized by categories designed to be useful for the preparation of language materials. I worked alongside language instructors, students, and linguists to organize legacy materials and collect new media to build an accessible, sustainable dictionary database and to create a learners' dictionary website for public viewing.
