content: Primers, dictionaries, word lists, research on linguistic methods, and newspapers (if in an indigenous dialect) are in this group.  Not every item is complete in and of itself.  There is a predominance of items produced by missionary endeavor.  The Palauan section contains 15 separate items ranging from Psalm I to a reprint of BAE Bulletin article entitled "A Caroline Islands Script" by Saul Riesenberg and Shigeru Kaneshiro.  The New Guinea pidgin English collection consists of 9 items.  A small collection, 3 items, deals with research in Papuan.
