The Aleut Community of Saint Paul Island received a $150,000 Project Grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services (CFDA 45.311 - Native American and Native Hawaiian Library Services program) to host a 20-month "Island Times Visits" initiative. This project will document stories shared by elders on Saint Paul Island and preserve the unique culture and history of the community over the past 50 years. The recordings will be stored in the library's cultural archive, edited for quality, and made publicly accessible through the Tanamawaa.com website and local KUHB public radio broadcasts. This will provide present and future access to personal accounts of the community's history and stories for local residents and those off-island.
