Indeed, cooperation is a basic operating principle for the university libraries. We follow common standards, use the same vendor for our library computer systems, and share materials through Interlibrary Loan and joint purchases of electronic materials. The libraries participate in Alaska’s Reciprocal Borrowers Program, which allows students, staff and faculty from all UA campuses colleges to check materials out from any of the libraries and return them through their local libraries. Electronic materials in business, nursing, environmental and biological studies, education and psychology are purchased for UA-wide use. Another group of electronic materials, the Databases for Alaskans (recently renamed the Digital Pipeline), licenses resources for all Alaskans as well as the university. This program has been very successful and serves as a model for statewide library services. The Databases for Alaskans program delivers core academic resources to all of the UA campuses. Together, the UA libraries represent the largest core of information resources in the state of Alaska. Because of this and the University of Alaska’s service mission to the state, the UA Libraries dedicate considerable resources in funds, staff time, and IT to assisting all Alaskans as well as supporting the educational and research missions of the University of Alaska.

I am especially grateful to the Ahtna people and the residents of the Copper River Basin for supporting my research and showing me their way of life. Without the information and knowledge they shared with me, this thesis could not have been written. Further, I want to thank Robbin LaVine, from the Anthropology Division of the Office of Subsistence Management and James Van Lanen, from the Division of Subsistence, Alaska Department of Fish & Game, who guided me to the case of the Ahtna and who supported me on site in many ways. My sincere thanks go to my supervisor Peter Schweitzer for his theoretical input and his patience. I am grateful for the emotional and practical support of my girlfriend Elke. Without her motivation and encouragement this thesis would still be in the process of writing. Finally, I want to thank my parents, Brigitte and Christoph, for their support along my studies and this research.
