For the most part they are organized...But if you cannot find something that is of interest, but not

The Family Search Historical Image Section
has a nice selection of BIA Family Census [Village] Records
I had a difficult time trying to find a definitve explanation of the process by which the
information was gathered. There was really nothing to find, but from looking at the files, two things stand out:
I did manage to find this...
However...
1: Teachers gathered from either students or parents information and recorded it on printed forms
2. BIA Agents or their Assistants recorded information 'on site' on printed forms.
This is evident in the fact that they entered data on living conditions.
The time frame for the Information found ranges from about 1913 to 1972.
Explanation about "Roll Numbers"
Below is an index of the Information available on Family Search.
There are also films in the National Archives, Archive.org Site and Access Genealogy.
