The Oglala Lakota College Woksape Tipi in Pine Ridge, South Dakota, is the designated public library for the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation and will use funds to upgrade its internet access and subscribe to Flipster On-line Digital Periodicals to support its existing operations and to maintain core library services for its community. Woksape Tipi is the sole academic resource for Oglala Lakota College and serves the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation and the Cheyenne River Indian Reservation. Funding will also support travel for two library staff members to attend the Tribal College Librarians Conference. The project will provide direct benefit to the nearly 1,300 students at the Oglala Lakota College and 19,000 people on the Pine Ridge Reservation within its project service area.
