content: "The Innovative Process" is a reprint from Alfred L. Kroeber: A Memorial, Kroeber Anthropological Society Papers, No. 25, Fall 1961, 18pp.  It is the only published item.  The Nature and Function of the Potlatch was Barnett's Ph. D. dissertation written in 1938 and reproduced by the University of Oregon in 1968.  The Yakima Indians of 1942 is a partial duplicate of NAA MS 4867.  It lacks the resume pages and photographs.  There is a 13-page mimeo report written by Dr. Barnett for the Governor of Netherlands New Guinea.  It was based on a visit he made June-August 1955 with the purpose of observing existing conditions among Papuans and how these conditions affected administrative planning and execution.  This item was found folded inside the field notebooks marked "Netherlands New Guinea" in Series 3.
