Can you imagine if aliens contacted us, would we turn them away? IUf we did, i think it would be a mistake.

I would hope we would welcome new information and new technology.

I dont know if they have been offered access to our libraries, but you could send them your library card. Might be a bit premature though dont you think? Do you think they will be able to read?

Dont presume to impose your beliefs etc onto other.

Modern civilisation seeks out knowledge etc. This indigenous tribe could make contact with the outside world if they wanted. They have chosen not to avail themselves of that opportunity to any great extent. That is obviously their choice.

As for aliens contacting us, ever thought they work on a similar system of non interference?
