Kodiak Area Native Association

The Tangirnaq Native Village Library is located in Kodiak, Alaska, near Woody Island, the traditional home of the tribe. The library’s collection focuses on Alaska Native culture and history, as well as educational materials on other matters of special tribal, native, or Alaskan significance. In addition to growing the collection to support the tribe’s lifelong learning needs, the library will hire an assistant to help organize and promote the library and its programs. Staff will continue to foster new relationships with local partners to increase use of the library and its resources by tribal members, including hundreds who live off-island.
