This important new work presents the results of archaeological investigations carried out in Canada's Lesser Slave Lake region during the 1980s and 1990s. The book offers evidence of the region's occupation from late Holocene times and presents information on the extensive trade and communication networks which existed in ancient times, including the discovery of raw materials such as obsidian from British Columbia's Anahim region. The author also details cultural influences from the Athapaskan peoples to the north and Plains groups to the south, and looks at the Cree who lived in the area at the dawn of contact with Euro-Canadians.

Over the past two decades, the oil sands region of northeastern Alberta has been the site of unprecedented levels of development. Alberta's Lower Athabasca Basin tells a fascinating story of how a catastrophic ice age flood left behind a unique landscape in the Lower Athabasca Basin, one that made deposits of bitumen available for surface mining. Less well known is the discovery that this flood also produced an environment that supported perhaps the most intensive use of boreal forest resources by prehistoric Native people yet recognized in Canada. Studies undertaken to meet the conservation requirements of the Alberta Historical Resources Act have yielded a rich and varied record of prehistoric habitation and activity in the oil sands area. Evidence from between 9,500 and 5,000 years ago—the result of several major excavations—has confirmed extensive human use of the region’s resources, while important contextual information provided by key geological and palaeoenvironmental studies has deepened our understanding of how the region’s early inhabitants interacted with the landscape. Touching on various elements of this rich environmental and archaeological record, the contributors to this volume use the evidence gained through research and compliance studies to offer new insights into human and natural history. They also examine the challenges of managing this irreplaceable heritage resource in the face of ongoing development. Contributors: Alwynne Beaudoin, Angela Younie, Brian O.K.

An archaeological survey of Calling Lake, situated in the mixed wood forest zone approximately 225 km north of Edmonton, found an abundance of prehistoric material at sites on the east and southeast shore. Four prehistoric campsites were excavated in three field seasons from l966 to 1968. Comparison of projectile point styles with types dated elsewhere suggest that occupation of two of the sites began in the interval 3000 to 1000 B.C. with major occupation of the other two sites starting somewhat later. Cultural affiliations appear to be with the Taltheilei tradition and earlier, with the Plains area.

The Charleston Conference Proceedings 2004, document what is arguably the most influential and highly thought of conferences in the U.S. library world. Always well attended and managed, the Conference attracts the leading figures of both the library world and the businesses that service libraries, including publishers--both paper and electronic-- jobbers and aggregators. Its focus is collection management, but the topic is misleading now that traditional collection management has been expanded to include electronic publications of all sorts. Each year the speakers and topics are outstanding and 2004 was no exception. Indeed, the Conference seems to get better each year. The theme of the 2004 conference, All the World's a Serial provided the focus for a wide variety of papers and presentations in collection development, Journals, The Book, Technology, Personell Issues, Consortia, Budgeting, and Books on the Internet. The Charleston Conference is arguably one of the most influential and highly regarded conferences in the U.S. library world. Always well attended and managed, the conference attracts the leading figures from libraries and the businesses that service them, including publishers, jobbers and aggregators.

Archaeological survey work in the upper Churchill River basin indicates that the story of human occupation in this region was unlike that of the Canadian Shield. That impression has been substantiated by the excavation of two stratified campsites (the Chartier sites) and with access to two valuable surface collections with site provenience. The two campsites covered the period from AD 700 to the Historic Period. Using the 246 projectile points collected and a sample of the ceramics, the rudimentary local sequence based on stratigraphy was expanded to a tentative chronology spanning most of the Holocene. These data provide a strong indication of the vitality of the cultural dynamics in this part of the boreal forest over a considerable period. They show that there was a late prehistoric plains occupation, followed by the westerly movement of the Cree from the middle Churchill River region very late in prehistoric times.
