  ^{139}La nuclear quadrupole resonance measurements in lightly doped
La_2Cu_{1-x}Li_xO_4 have been performed to reveal the dependence of the
magnetic properties of the antiferromagnetic CuO_2 planes on the character of
the doped holes and their interactions with the dopant. A detailed study shows
that the magnetic properties are remarkably insensitive to the character of the
dopant impurity. This indicates that the added holes form previously
unrecognized collective structures.
