Description

Recent changes to the item selection requirements for selective Federal depository libraries have created a new level of interest in becoming a selective Federal depository among Tribal College Libraries. All Tribal Colleges that are land-grant institutions are eligible to become FDLs if they meet basic requirements of having at least 10,000 tangible items in any format in their library, if they agree to serve their entire community and members of the public, and if they will provide access to Federal depository resources in the formats they select. This discussion will introduce the three newest members of the FDLP: Sitting Bull College on the Standing Rock Indian Reservation in North and South Dakota; Northwest Indian College on the Lummi Indian Reservation in Washington; and Leech Lake Tribal College on the Leech Lake Indian Reservation in Minnesota.
