November is Indigenous Peoples Month in the United States. In respect to this observance, responsible scholarship produced over the last century related to the historical legacy and enduring importance of Native American culture has given the world documented information on this important and inspirational group of people. Regardless of the individual tribe, the contributions made by all of the Native American Nations provides a story of pride and perseverance for the ages.
The University Libraries contains a large number of Native American-centered resources within its Main Collection. A starter list of book titles can be found via this Link.
