Native Voices: Native Peoples’ Concepts of Health and Illness

A traveling exhibition created by the U.S. National Library of Medicine (NLM),

(ALA), the exhibition is now traveling to libraries throughout the United States,

and will be on display at the Alpine Library throughout the month of April.  The
