Abstract:George Franchois, Director of the United States Department of the Interior Library, talks about initiatives to improve library services and resources for American Indian Libraries. The Department of the Interior Library conducted a survey of Tribal College and University Libraries to ask about their needs. Based on the survey results, a new American Indian Libraries Initiative working group was formed through FEDLINK. One accomplishment was getting FEDLINK membership for Tribal College and University Libraries that will enable them to obtain discounted, federal government pricing. Goals of the group include building an information culture; creating a clearinghouse of resources among participants; identifying federal efforts to support American Indian Libraries in their preservation, digitization, cataloging, and reference services efforts; and integrating event and training opportunities.
