  • Aboriginal Peoples of Alberta
    Introduction The Provincial Archives of Alberta is a “total archives”, not only preserving the documentary heritage of the Alberta Government, but also that of individuals, businesses, organizations, associations and communities of Alberta. As such, the Provincial Archives holds records pertaining to personal papers of individuals as well as business, religious, artistic, organizational, community and cultural life. Since its establishment in 1963, the Provincial Archives has acquired a wide assortment of records, including records relating to Alberta’s Aboriginal peoples. These include both Alberta Government records as well as records from private individuals and organizations. Several media types and formats are represented – textual records, photographs, maps, audio recordings and film/video recordings. These records range in date from the 1880s to the 1990s and represent a very broad variety of subjects including such topics as material culture, relations with government, health care, education and economic development. The records represent Alberta society at any given point in time. An archival fonds1 may include material on a wide range of different subjects. Sometimes all of the various subjects may not be clearly identified in the available finding aids. Consequently, relevant material is occasionally difficult to locate within a much larger body of records. The purpose of this bibliography, therefore, is to provide improved access to archival records about Alberta’s Aboriginal peoples contained within the holdings of the Provincial Archives. The records in the following bibliography are arranged by accession number. An accession is a discrete body of records received from a single source at the same time. An accession may be as small as single photograph or as large as 100 linear meters of records.
