Description: The most significant items in Mary Haas' Navajo file are two field notebooks, totaling around 140 pages filled, from the early 1970s, possibly as part of a taught field methods class. These can be found in Series 2, name Frank Burnside as the consultant, and reference audio recordings not housed at the APS. Haas also kept short wordlists of Navajo and made comparisons between Navajo and a large variety of other Dene languages, scattered throughout Series 2 and 9, and corresponded with Muriel Saville-Troike on the language (Series 1).
