BEST COPV fi;;;tili1311 A SURVEY OF LIBRARY SEVCES AVAILABLE TO NAVAJO PEOPLE ON THE NAVAJO INDIAN RESERVATION A Research Paper by Margaret Wood Graduate School of Librarianship University of Denver Auguitg1973 UJ 116 BEST Conolurion COPYAVAILABLE There is a need for all types of informationservices on the Navajo Reservation.More materials, more staff and longer hours of service, and specialoutreach programs are needed in existing library facilities.Distances people must travel to cattsfy their informational, educational,recreational and cul- tural requirements must bereduced. Existing services need to change their focus in orderto deal with students and establishing them as libraryusers and adults in meeting problems ofcareer development, health and otherpriority concerns of thearea. (26,4) From examining state library laws and theextent to which the, state libraries fulfilltheir duties, it can be concluded that they are almost entirelymeeting their legal obligations. But certa4ly it cannot be concludedthat the Navajo peopleare receiving adequate libraryservice. To. support the services needed, a steadysource of.funds is needed and possiblyrespon- sibility can be attachedto the Federal Government. "...the history of services to the Indiansin the Southwest has been one of federaljurisdiction with little localrespon- sibility or federal, support.''unfortunately, no special federal money ha's been earmarked for public libraryprojects or materials for the Indians." (7,3) Navajo Indiansipayno local_ or state property tax, no state BEST COPY AVAILABLE 117 V or local sales tax and asof March 27, 1973, Navajos in Arizona pay no state income tax. This Supreme Court decision may even- tually apply.to some states presently levying incometax on Indian citizens. The fact that the Indian populationsin these states are not paying taxes may alg4 affect the amount ofor- vices received from the state governments, Navajos do, however, pay federal income tax and most local ser.c.sts and education funding for them comes from the FederalGov, -nment. /- The above taxation situation is very similar to the Cana- dian Indian bands and reservations. Canadian Indian bands began expressing interest in having libraries in the 1960's,many developing volunteer librarieson their °Wu. As a result of this interest, Saskatchewan's provincial librarr and the Indian- Eskimo Association approached the Department of IndianAffairs and Northern Development,(Imparable to theU. S. Bureau of In- dian Affairs) with facts and figures abut librariesin relation to Canadian Indians. This presentation of facts showed that In- diana did make use of community libraries and thatIndian bands had made numerous requesti- for informationon establishing com- munity libraries and joining regional librarysystems. (40:38.39) In March, 1967, the Department of Indian Affairs and Nor- them Development made provisions for librarygrants amounting to $1.00 and later $1.50 per capita.from Grants to Bands Funds." (19s49) Also a library consultant was added to the Department staff. To get these funds, the individual Indian band must show 11E1 BEST COPY AVAICABLE initiative in establishing libra;service, must match wants with at least 10$ per capita and must establish,aworking ar- rangement with a larger library system. Federal library,grants and band contributions take the place of localtax funds availa- ble in other communities and allow triballibraries to join systems on an equal basis. (19:49) ,$ It is conceivable thatthe above fundingprogram could be initiated inthe U. S., for thebenefit of Navajo Inhiansc and all Indians in the U. S..Librarians should applypressure to either the U.S. office of Educationor the Bureau pf Indian Affairs until one or,the other acceptsresponsibility and stab- Usher, an active Indian library servicedivision. (19:46) Certainly the American Library Association LibraryService to AmericanIndian People Subcommittee,a part of the Library florvic to the Disadvantaged Committee, could and shouldhelp with the establishment of sucha funding program. lialliftrA.

Burkhardt Chairman National Commission on Libraries And Information Science BEST COPY AVAILABLE Suite 601 1717 K Street, N. W. Washington, D. C. 20036, Dear Mr. Burkhardt: This letter is written in response to your invitation to submit by August 2 written testimony for the New England Hearing on Optober 3 of the National. Commission on Libraries and Information Science. I am deeply concerned that many potential users of information are deprived of t4e library materials and services which they should have. In terms of effectiveness and cost benefit analysis, the following situations should be vividly portrayed. 1. A very significant number of Vermont children do not receive pre- first grade educational experiences.This is especially true in the smaller communities. Here, attempts to meet the need through parent- child h e education programs face.a startlingly barren situation of "book fane" in this age of such delightfUl materials for the very young. He is a place vhere some vell -.placed dollars can work o prevent, through laying the foundation for education, potential ater illiteracy, frusti-ations and poverty. 2. We need funds for school libraries and-media center.Here are facts from Vermont: a. There are 351relementary schools in Vermont, of which according to data from our School Library Consultant, 72% have inadequate book collections, 93% have inadequatespace, 79% have inadequate audio-visual collections, and 95% do not have fully qualified librarians. b. The position at the School Library/Media Consultant is entirely Federally funded. if no further Federal funds are available for FY 75, the position is in jeopardy because the State budget is stretched to the breaking point. Without theConsultant, individual schools willbe without swe of the help they so desperately need 4- 4P Colorado State Univers& ty The Libraries Fort Collins, Colorado 80521 r- ?rederick F.

I am Senator Tom Brewer from Gordon, Nebraska, representing the 43rd Legislative District. I serve as the Chair of this committee. Because of the COVID situation, we're going to go through a number of COVID specific things and then we'll get into the Government Committee intro here. For the safety of our committee members, staff, pages, and the public, we ask those attending our hearing to abide by the following procedures. Due to social distancing requirements, seating in the hearing room is limited, very limited. We ask that you only enter the hearing room when it is necessary for you to attend your hearing. The bills will be taken up as posted outside the hearing on the wall. The list will be updated after each hearing to identify which bill is the current bill up, so the number will be up there and then the pages will then post outside. The committees will pause between each bill to allow enough time for the public to move in and move out. Keep in mind that after each testifier, we'll need a slight delay in order to clean the table, clean the chair. So just understand we'll have some pauses. But those pauses are not for senators to start talking because the mikes will be on and it will still be getting recorded.

Conklin, Ph.D. Executive Director e-mail [email protected] Unity, Equality, Aloha for all To: HOUSE COMMITTEE ON EDUCATION For hearing Thursday, March 18, 2021 Re: HCR179, HR148 URGING THE SUPERINTENDENT OF EDUCATION TO REQUEST THE BOARD OF EDUCATION TO CHANGE THE NAME OF PRESIDENT WILLIAM MCKINLEY HIGH SCHOOL BACK TO THE SCHOOL'S PREVIOUS NAME OF HONOLULU HIGH SCHOOL AND TO REMOVE THE STATUE OF PRESIDENT MCKINLEY FROM THE SCHOOL PREMISES TESTIMONY IN OPPOSITION There is only one reason why some activists want to abolish "McKinley" from the name of the school and remove his statue from the campus. The reason is, they want to rip the 50th star off the American flag and return Hawaii to its former status as an independent nation. And through this resolution they want to enlist you legislators as collaborators in their treasonous propaganda campaign. The strongest evidence that this is their motive is easy to see in the "whereas" clauses of this resolution and in documents provided by the NEA and the HSTA which are filled with historical falsehoods trashing the alleged U.S. "invasion" and "occupation" of Hawaii; alleged HCR179, HR148 Page !1 of !10 Conklin HSE EDN 031821 suppression of Hawaiian language and culture; and civics curriculum in the early Territorial period. Portraying Native Hawaiians as victims of colonial oppression and/or belligerent military occupation is designed to bolster demands to "give Hawaii back to the Hawaiians", thereby producing a race-supremacist government and turning the other 80% of Hawaii's people into second-class citizens.

  • THE JESUIT MISSION to CANADA and the FRENCH WARS of RELIGION, 1540-1635 Dissertation P
    “POOR SAVAGES AND CHURLISH HERETICS”: THE JESUIT MISSION TO CANADA AND THE FRENCH WARS OF RELIGION, 1540-1635 Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Joseph R. Wachtel, M.A. Graduate Program in History The Ohio State University 2013 Dissertation Committee: Professor Alan Gallay, Adviser Professor Dale K. Van Kley Professor John L. Brooke Copyright by Joseph R. Wachtel 2013 Abstract My dissertation connects the Jesuit missions in Canada to the global Jesuit missionary project in the late sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries by exploring the impact of French religious politics on the organizing of the first Canadian mission, established at Port Royal, Acadia, in 1611. After the Wars of Religion, Gallican Catholics blamed the Society for the violence between French Catholics and Protestants, portraying Jesuits as underhanded usurpers of royal authority in the name of the Pope—even accusing the priests of advocating regicide. As a result, both Port Royal’s settlers and its proprietor, Jean de Poutrincourt, never trusted the missionaries, and the mission collapsed within two years. After Virginia pirates destroyed Port Royal, Poutrincourt drew upon popular anti- Jesuit stereotypes to blame the Jesuits for conspiring with the English. Father Pierre Biard, one of the missionaries, responded with his 1616 Relation de la Nouvelle France, which described Port Royal’s Indians and narrated the Jesuits’ adventures in North America, but served primarily as a defense of their enterprise. Religio-political infighting profoundly influenced the interaction between Indians and Europeans in the earliest years of Canadian settlement.

Its members are united in a common concern for the craft and art of writing and a commitment to freedom of expression through the written word. Through its Centres, PEN operates on all five continents with 138 centres in 101 countries. Founded in London in 1921, PEN connects an international community of writers. It is a forum where writers meet freely to discuss their work. It is also a voice speaking out for writers silenced in their own countries. The Writers in Prison Committee of International PEN was set up in 1960 as a result of mounting concern about attempts to silence crit- ical voices around the world through the detention of writers. It works on behalf of all those who are detained or otherwise persecuted for their opinions expressed in writing and for writers who are under attack for their peaceful political activities or for the practice of their profession, provided that they did not use violence or advocate violence or racial hatred. Member centres of International PEN are active in campaigning for an improvement in the conditions of persecuted writers and journalists.

  • Jay Z Tom Ford 8 Bit Download
    Jay z tom ford 8 bit download Continue They are one of Hollywood's most enduring and inspiring power couples, and while they have experienced their fair share of drama and speculation, Beyonce and J-See will still be strong, more than fifteen years after they first met. After years together, many fans wonder how it all started and where the duo first met. Here's a rundown of how the Carters met and eventually fell in love. How old was Beyonce when she met J-Zee? It seems that Beyonce is no older than that with her flawless skin and enviable figure. But there was a time when she was a teenager, like many other girls, just trying to figure things out - and even though she was already a global superstar, after the success of her band Destiny's Child, the relationship was a very different ball game. Beyonce said she was about 18 when she first met J.J. She went on to work out that although they met when she was 18, they didn't actually start dating until after a year of talking and getting to know each other. There is a significant age gap between the pair, with Jay-zee being twelve years older than queen B, but this didn't seem to be a problem for them. The Carters have been known to be private about the details of their relationship and marriage, but it seems that Jay-zee, who uses his music as the ultimate form of self-expression, may have recently revealed how the two went on their first date.
