Abstract:
NPR journalists Steve Inskeep and Renee Montagne interview Celia Rozen of Alaska Resources Library and Information Services (ARLIS), a special government library located in Anchorage, Alaska, about the library's circulation of taxidermy items (realia, such as furs, skulls, and mounted animals (chiefly birds)) and replicas (chiefly fishes) representing animals native to Alaska. ARLIS used to own educational kits and a large collection of realia (furs, skulls, mounted animals (chiefly birds), and model replicas (chiefly fishes) representing animals native to Alaska. ARLIS used to circulate such items in addition to educational kits to library users--primarily educators. In 2022 (after production of this interview), most of these items have been removed from ARLIS, and the few remaining items on public display do not circulate.
