Archives\u2019 holdings for the\u00a0<em>American Indian Libraries Newsletter<\/em> do not continue past 1989. Of course, in the meanwhile, the\u00a0<em>Newsletter<\/em> and the <a href=\"http:\/\/ailanet.org\/\">American Indian Library Association<\/a> have continued strong and you can reach them at A.L.A. conferences too. In fact, since 2007, as of Volume 31, <a href=\"http:\/\/ailanet.org\/newsletter\/\">digital access copies of the <em>Newsletter<\/em> are available on the AILA website<\/a>&#8211;check them out!<\/p>\n<h1>Copies Available at Your ALA Archives<\/h1>\n<p>Physical copies <em>American Indian Libraries Newsletter\u00a0<\/em>are available for viewing at the ALA Archives; however, not all copies are available yet.

Archives can\u2019t always keep-up with everyone all of the time. Not all librarians save the records of their careers and this makes preserving the heritage of American Indian librarians and American Indian library communities difficult to document.
