The Archives the University of Alberta Guide to Native Sources The Archives The University of Alberta Guide to Native Sources at the University of Alberta Archives Project Co-ordinator Bryan Corbett Contributors Alan Contois Erika Radenovich-Ban ski Andrew Drummond University of Alberta Archives, Edmonton, 1996 Acknowledgements The Guide to Native Sources at the University of Alberta Archives was conceived and initiated in 1993. Alan Contois, who completed the bulk of the work on the project, was hired with the help of the Student Employment Experience Development (SEED) programme. Erika Radenovich-Banski and Andrew Drummond were hired under the terms of the Canada Youth Works programme of the Department of Canadian Heritage in 1996 to complete the project. Others who have aided in the completion of the project include Kevan Warner, Fay Hutchinson, Doris Ferguson, and Mark Vajcner, who variously provided invaluable assistance to the three contributors. Thanks are also extended to the University of Alberta Libraries and Employment and Immigration Canada, who co-funded the project. The Archives and the contributors wish to thank the authors of existing guides at the Archives, especially those of the Reta Rowan, William Pearce, and Kerry Wood papers, without whom the project would have been infinitely extended.

It includes holdings related to native peoples and to various issues of concern. to members of native groups. The objective of the creators of the Guide was to facilitate research on natives and native issues by providing subject access to relevant information created or collected by institutional and individual members of the University community and by others in the course of their careers. Selection criteria The Guide includes records selected according to a number of criteria by the individuals involved in the project. The project, approved in 1993, was divided in two phases: The first phase started in summer 1993, when Alan Comtois, a Native Student of the University of Alberta, completed the primary selection of relevant records in the holdings of the University Archives. He created a draft version of the entries for the Guide, providing the final format for the entries and records descriptions on various levels (See 2nd paragraph ( below). The project was continued in summer 1996. In this second phase, the material included in the draft version of entries for the Guide was verified and updated (last accession 96-34), and the outline of the Guide finalized and the contents indexed. The primary finding aids used for selecting materials were the Main Catalogue entries and Index to the holdings of the University Archives, as well as the Accession Registers, Record Groups, Manuscript Groups, and Photographs Inventories, and published guides to particular collections. For accessions where inventory lists were available (which was most often the case), the creators relied on the inventory lists for description and verification of relevance of the selected records. In other cases, the original records were reviewed and described. Organization The material in the Guide is divided into Primary and Secondary Group, and within each group into Section A and Section B. The Primary Group includes collections which, if not entirely, then in a significant proportion, relate to the subject. The Secondary Group lists collections that are not significantly related to native issues, but contain relevant information in particular record series, files, or single items. The two sections in each group are based on similar classification criteria: Section A includes records of institutions, associations and projects, while Section B lists records of individuals. Within each section, the contents are arranged alphabetically by corporate or personal name, the main entry being identified by provenance. Each entry has a unique identification number in the Guide, and the ) numbering runs in one sequence. These entry numbers are referred to in the Index accompanying the Guide. The Guide lists records on various levels of description, ranging from a fonds to specific item level, depending on whether the whole collection, or certain accessions, or only particular files or items are relevant to the subject. Fonds-level descriptions are mainly given in the Primary Group, where the entire collection is subject-related, and/or in cases where a published inventory or guide to the given collection exists. The arrangement of each entry in the Guide is as follows (Note: 1. to 6 follow the entry arrangement of From the Past to the Future): 1. Entry Number: A unique identifying number for the entry. 2. Title: The main access point of each entry is the official name of the organiz.ation or the name of the person that created or collected the records. 3. Dales: Life dates of the organiz.ation or individual. 4. Organization or personal description: A summary of the major events in the life of an organiz.ation or individual as derived from From the Past to the Future: A Guide to the Holdings ofthe University ofAlbena Archives or from the Archives' biography files or case files. 5. Subject-related records description: A summary of the subject-specific records emanating from the activities of the organiz.ation or individual related to native peoples and native issues. 6. General records descriptions: Media: Text, photographs and other media, or multiple media Extent: The approximate extent, if determined, measured in linear meters . Dates: The outside dates of relevant materials in the fonds. Categories: Description of relevant records series or subjects I types of records in alphabetical order. Explanat01y notes, "See also" references, Finding Aids, Access. 7. Specific records descriptions: Accessions/ Items: Records arranged by accessions or item numbers in chronological, ascending order. Subjects: Given in fonds level, file level, or item level description of the records, depending on classification criteria described above. Dates: The outside dates of a fonds, file, or item, depending on the chosen description level. Index An Index accompanies the Guide providing subject access to the materials listed and described in the Guide. It includes personal and corporate names, government bodies, subjects, and titles authors of published and unpublished documents. These documents include texts - monographs, manuscripts, research papers, reports, articles, conference proceedings, interview transcripts, etc.), as well as audio and video recordings (films, interviews, radio talks). All document titles are typed in italics regardless of whether the document was published or not, or whether it is a monograph or only a part of a document (i.e. an article in a book or journal). This deviation from the normal rules of bibliographic citation was made in order to differentiate between titles of (un)published documents and subject headings and file / item titles. Furthermore, if the author of the (un)published document is known, his/her name accompanies the title, and the citation appears once under the title, and once under the name of the author. Items are indexed not by page number, but by the Guide 's reference number. The material in the index is arranged in alphabetical, word by word order. Because of the time period covered in the Guide (ranging in certain records from the second half of the 19th century to 1995) and the changes in both terminology and in institutional names during this period, the index does not provide an authority

It focusses on a single province – Alberta – and utilizes an inter-disciplinary approach to understand how the interaction between the biological and the psychosocial conditions of the schools contributed to both immediate and chronic health problems for Aboriginal students. Through an examination of nutrition, sanitation, disease, healthcare interventions, and mental health in the schools, it is seen that any “progress” the Department made in regards to the health of students was circular.

In the background are outcrops of the Late Devonian Imperial Formation, interpreted to be submarine turbidite deposits. The light bands are sandstone bodies intercalated with the darker shale intervals, representing periodic activity in sedimentation. Compiled by D. Irwin, S.D. Gervais, and V.
