Alaska Fish and Game Publications 1960s to Present, Decade by Decade

I was recently asked to compile a comprehensive list of publications held by the Alaska State Library by a division within our Alaska Department of Fish and Game. I thought it might be a good opportunity to show how the concerns of the state have varied (or not) through the years.

I actually located over a thousand items, which I’m not going to list here. If you’re curious, you can browse the division publication records on Open WorldCat at:

Alaska. Division of Wildlife Conservation
Alaska. Division of Game

Here is a randomly selected group of publication, one a decade from the 1960s through now:
