Lakota Technologies Officials and Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe
Leaders Visit the Library
Company Has OLDMEDLINE Contract
In late February, officials of Lakota Technologies, Inc. Eagle
Butte, South Dakota, met with NLM Director Dr. Donald A.B. Lindberg
and Sheldon Kotzin, Chief of the Library's Bibliographic Services
Division (BSD), to discuss progress made on their contract with NLM
to perform data entry tasks associated with the creation of
OLDMEDLINE. OLDMEDLINE is a database containing citations to
articles in biomedical journals published between 1960 and 1965.
Lakota Technologies is a commercial operation of the Cheyenne River
Sioux Tribe, whose reservation is located on 2.8 million acres (an
area the size of Connecticut) in north central South Dakota. Sue
Vonbraunsberg, a librarian with BSD, is the project director working
with Lakota Technologies. |
