The Tundra Times was a bi-weekly newspaper published in Fairbanks, Alaska from 1962 to 1997.

The first edition of the "The Eskimo-Indian All-Alaska Newspaper" was published on 1 October 1962,[2] and was written by and for Alaska Natives aiming to serve as the "medium to aid (Natives) in their struggle for just determination and settlement of their enormous problems...(and) to keep informed on matters of interest to all Natives of Alaska." The Tundra Times ceased publication in 1997,[3] but its photographic archive was acquired by the Tuzzy Consortium Library and is available online.[4]
