Here's the latest from the California Language Archive:
- We have accessioned the first series of the Katherine Turner Collection of Indigenous Language Materials (PhD 1987), consisting of a rich set of 23 boxes of file slips of words and phrases in Chimariko (isolate; California), many organizing the knowledge provided by Chimariko elder Sally Noble to linguist J.P. Harrington, based on his notes held by the National Anthropological Archives.
- This semester the CLA was fortunate to have a larger-than-normal group of eight student, alum, and other staff and volunteers supporting cataloging and digitization (left to right): Ronald Sprouse (IT Specialist), Tyler Lee-Wynant, Julian Vargo, Zachary O'Hagan (Manager), Nyssa Combs, Priyanka Samant, Sebastian Clendenning Jiménez, Fiona Murphy, Andrew Garrett (Director), Sophia Hsu, and Michaela Richter.
