Description
Introduction From 1998-2000 Montana State University (MSU) received from the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS), an agency of the U.S. government, a $138,000 National Leadership grant to build an image database of Native American peoples that would be searchable on the web. Also included in the funding were monies for user education through the annual meeting of tribal college librarians held every year at MSU. An initial partnership was developed between three institutions--the three campuses of MSU, the Museum of the Rockies, and Little Big Horn College. Currently the database has over 1,500 images and can be found at libmuse.msu.montana.edu:4000/nad/nad.home.
