Description
The collection includes forty-nine Native American newspapers from twenty-three states and the District of Columbia. The material addresses problems and concerns of Native Americans and is confined to the twentieth century. Emphasis is placed on the decades of the sixties and seventies.
The newspapers were filmed in alphabetical order by title, then chronologically under each title.
The index provides access by title and by geographical area. In addition, there is a master index to the newspaper titles and their contents.
The printed index is reproduced on reel one of the collection. There is no index to individual articles within the newspapers.
Because this library has current subscriptions to some, but not all, of the newspapers in this collection, individual titles should be checked in the online catalog if recent information is sought.
