Rappahannock Tribe

The Rappahannock Tribe of Virginia’s archival collection of documents, letters, records, and images related to the tribe’s cultural and governmental history dates to the late 19th century. The library plans to begin the process of accessioning, storing, and preserving those documents to make them more accessible to tribal members, scholars, and the public. The library will digitize the materials and make them available on a new website that will house the Rappahannock Tribe Virtual Museum. By properly storing the archival collection in this manner, the library will help ensure it is available to educate future generations.
