legacy materials

[Joan Gross]

Hi everyone,
In response to Shannon's question, I wanted to let you all know that we just
published a book, Teaching Oregon Native Languages (Oregon State University
Press) and in the appendix we list the primary repositories of Oregon Native
Language archival materials, both written and audio. We also include after
the bibliography a list of tribal and other websites where language material
can be accessed. I'm attaching an order form.
