The librarian at the Santa Ysabel Tribal Library in California keeps finding wonderful resources and posting about them in her library's blog. Recently she has found:
- a site called Internet Sacred Text Archve that includes several Northwestern Native American documents.
- The Native Village Music and Dance Library
- Native American Law Resource Page, and
- Lisa Mitten's Native American Nations page. (Many people start web projects like this one. But it looks like she is keeping it up to date!)
Another blog to keep your eye on is American Indians in Children's Literature. The author, Debbie Reese, is enrolled at Nambe Pueblo in northern New Mexico, and has a lot to say about books written for children. We also have two major print resources on this subject, Through Indian eyes : the native experience in books for children by Beverly Slapin, and A broken flute : the Native experience in books for children edited by Doris Seale and Beverly Slapin.
