| The
Canadian Circumpolar Institute (CCI) at the University of Alberta
proudly continues a 43-year tradition as one of the premiere
northern research centres in Canada. The mandate of CCI is to
promote and support research on the circumpolar north, to foster
communication among northerners and northern-oriented researchers,
and to disseminate information about the circumpolar north.
CCI is affiliated with the Canadian Circumpolar Library, concentrating
on materials in all disciplines relative to Canada north of
60, Alaska, Greenland, and all Circumpolar nations and peoples.
Most
institute-sponsored research is published, creating a distinctive
collection of books on the north. Individual submissions and
co-publication
of northern titles is also undertaken. CCI Press emphasizes
the importance of peer-reviewed manuscript publishing. Several
titles in each format type deal with issues such as northern
history, the environment, health, community empowerment, wildlife,
politics, traditional knowledge, and northern peoples-- from
northern Alberta across the Arctic to Scandinavia and the
Russian north.
