Confederated Tribes of Coos, Lower Umpqua & Siuslaw Indians, Coos Bay, OR
For our last site visit of the summer we traveled to Coos Bay to meet with the Confederated Tribes of Coos, Lower Umpqua & Siuslaw Indians. While there we met with the cultural director, records manager, archeologist, manager of information systems, tribal administrator, and tribal chairman to discuss the tribe’s cultural archives and records management programs. It was wonderful to have the opportunity to share our project with so many and to learn so much from all of them.
Over the next few months we will begin planning the institute curriculum and are very excited to continue our many conversations will all nine tribes’ archivists, records managers, and other interested tribal members.
