[Nmtriblibs] Collection Development

[Hadley, Faye, DCA]

Hello Tribal Librarians,
Yesterday on a site visit I had a question come up about collection development, so I thought I’d share with you all a few of my go-to publishers and book stores.
First, my all-time favorite bookstore is Powells in Portland, OR. (https://www.powells.com/), it is an independently-owned bookstore (read not Amazon) that features new and used books and it is a great site to look for older, out-of-print books.  They have special sales regularly and if you get on their email list you will be apprised of the specials, for example, this week features Non-Fiction titles. Also on special this week is a buy two get one free deal on Little Golden Books.  I will try to send out emails periodically to let you know about good places to buy books.  If you have your own favorite book seller, feel free to share it with other Tribal Librarians.  Other publishers that often feature Native-themed titles are UNM Press (https://unmpress.com/), University of Arizona Press (https://uapress.arizona.edu/), University of Oklahoma Press (https://www.oupress.com/) and University of Minnesota Press Native American and Indigenous Studies (https://www.upress.umn.edu/disciplines/native-american-and-indigenous-studies#c5=all&b_start=0).  Anyway, you all likely knew about most of these publishers, but I did want to be responsive to the question that I had yesterday regarding Collection Development.  I hope that this is helpful.  Please let me know if you would like more emails like this one.  Thank you so much.
Best wishes,
Faye
