American Indian Heritage Month

November 1st marks the beginning of American Indian Heritage Month.  Officially, it's Native American Heritage Month, but at the U of MN the department is called American Indian Studies, so that is the term that I use.  I have set up a display showcasing our faculty publications and the American Indian Cultural House Film Series that the library partners with.  We work with the students involved in the Cultural House to choose films from our collections and each event is hosted by them.  It is meant to give first year students some opportunity to learn how to organize and lead an event on campus.  

I decided to put up an exhibit in one of our library spaces for this month.  I wanted to highlight our faculty publications and film collections.  My student worker created Pinterest Boards.
