Hoopa Valley Tribe

The Hoopa Valley Tribe Kim Yerton Library provides educational materials and services to its community in California and offered essential curbside library services and Wi-Fi access during the pandemic. The library will develop Hupa language curricula and teaching materials that will help preserve important cultural heritage. Currently no such resources exist for the community’s use. They will create CDs and DVDs to support the curricula for use by families, teachers, and others who wish to learn the Hupa language. By collaborating with the Hoopa museum, the library also will engage with an elder master speaker on a related Hupa dictionary project.
