Chilkat Indian Village

The Chilkat Indian Village will purchase archival materials and support a portion of staff salaries to expand its archival collection of tribal documents, photos, and audiovisual materials and make those materials more accessible to support its existing operations and to improve core library services. Library staff will review resources currently in storage and catalogue them for possible inclusion in the library's archival collection. The archivist will receive training on best practices for handling of archival resources. To enhance their skills in both general library work and archival work to better serve patrons, staff will receive additional training and participate in workshops and professional development opportunities. The project will provide direct benefit to the Chilkat Indian Village.
