Qhata mtsayka ukuk pulakli?

Here's a more informative and useful re-post of the info (from my posting to
the SALISHAN list).  Unfortunately I didn't note down how to navigate to the
Ruth Sehome Shelton information; I think it's in a "Northwest Indians" area.

  Hello!

  Here is a URL to take you to a page showing results of experimental
  digitization of old Salishan (and neighboring, e.g. Nez Perce) manuscript
  materials from the Gonzaga University Special Collections.  (A.k.a. the
  Oregon Province Archives of the Society of Jesus.)

  http://content.wsulibs.wsu.edu

  When you arrive there, use the "HTML Client", and click on "Search
Options".
  *Deselect* "WSU Buildings Collection", and *select* "Gonzaga U.
  Production--Textual Portion".

  Click "OK".

  I suggest you use for browse terms "Across All Fields", and enter e.g.
  "Kalispel" in order to view digitized pages of Giorda's ms. dictionary of
  that language.

  Feedback is welcomed by the director of the project, David Kingma at
Gonzaga
  University's Foley Library Center.  Those interested in contacting David
may
  email me--I have misplaced his email address at this late hour, but will
  find it another time for you.

  Thank you on behalf of the project staff.

  Best,
  Dave Robertson
