Examples of archival teaching and learning experiences available to 'Iolani School faculty and students can be found in the Lessons & Activities tab of this guide. 'Iolani School students are in the unique position of having an archival repository on-campus, affording them the opportunity for early experiences in developing primary source and visual literacy using place-based materials that supplement existing curriculum. The educational programming and curricular integration component also began in 2016. The resulting 'Iolani School Archives Catalog is available online. Inputting of collection holdings and creation of enhanced descriptions is ongoing. The content management system ArchivesSpace was acquired in January 2019 via a Lyrasis hosted instance.

From 2010 until its elimination in 2018, there was also a half-time technician position who generated metadata to increase research access points. Prior to 2014, this important work was the extent of collection description information. Due to the part-time hours of the position, scope of stewardship was limited however, archivists were able to contribute invaluably by creating subject authority controls and partial inventories. In the mid-1990s, professional archivists took over stewardship in the part-time Archivist position. The collection was organized and managed part-time by librarians, using Dewey Decimal Classification in lieu of archival organization standards, until the mid-1990s. Dubbed Iolaniana, this led to the establishment of an Iolaniana Room within the Upper School Library then, over time, dedicated space as the 'Iolani School Archives. Material began to be collected by school librarians in the late 1970s.
