Extractions: During the 1998-99 school year, the Department of Education and the Alaska State Library collaborated to sponsor the writing of content standards for Alaska students in the essential area of library/information literacy. A working group of educators from around the state wrote the content standards to reflect the knowledge, abilities and attitudes every Alaskan student should develop in this area. The standards follow the already published Alaska Content Standards in format and language, but delineate the unique skills required to be informationally literate. On Dec. 10, 1999 the State Board of Education voted to adopt the Library/Information Literacy Standards into regulation. These standards now join the original 10 core curricular areas as a major focus for educational programs in Alaska. These standards were incorporated into the Alaska Standards: Content and Performance Standards for Alaska Students in February, 2000.

In 1976, the case of Tobeluk v. Lind was settled by entry of a detailed consent decree providing for the establishment of a high school program in every one of the 126 villages covered by the litigation, unless people in the village decided against a local program. In 1979, Anna graduated from her village high school. By then, the number of new high school programs under the consent decree had climbed to 66. As of the 1982-83 school year, 101 native villages covered by the lawsuit had new or expanded school programs. As mandated by the consent decree, a massive wave of rural school construction to house the new high school programs is now nearing completion. As of January 1, 1984, 84 of the 92
