Please see the information below, which I gathered from two separate emails.  One is about “financial assistance to six American Indian librarians currently working in a tribal library of any kind to attend the ALA Annual Conference in New Orleans,” and the other is “a library school scholarship to a qualified American Indian individual in the amount of $2000 for the 2011-2012 academic school year.”
