Michael American Indian Education American Indians College Libraries Community Colleges Community Resources Developing Institutions Elementary Secondary Education Higher Education Institutional Cooperation Library Development Library Role Tribes Two recent studies clarify the growing importance of tribal college libraries in the overall tribal effort to educate Indian people. Cheryl Duran (1991) applied Flamholtz's organizational development model to the role of libraries in the development of tribal colleges. During the new venture, expansion, professional, and consolidation stages, respectively, tribal college libraries determine the information needs of the college and community, develop basic library resources and capabilities, satisfy standards for accreditation and acceptance within the larger educational community, and forge working relationships among themselves and other non-Indian institutions. Cheryl Metoyer-Duran (1992) interviewed tribal college presidents about the expanding role of tribal college libraries in Indian communities. Tribal college presidents reported that the activities of these libraries are related to the preservation of tribal culture, tribal economic development efforts, and developing information resources and providing services for local elementary and secondary schools and the community. Libraries are an important part of the ongoing crusade for self-determination. Their presence influences curriculum, instruction, and administration at all levels of Indian education. (SV) |
