Annotation | Examine local history collections in public libraries across the Abenaki nation (New Hampshire), to explore the question, "what does it mean for a public library to exist on occupied land?" In conversation with Abenaki Knowledge Keepers, the authors suggest some problematic aspects of local history collections and urge public library staff to consult with indigenous nations on local history collections, policies, and services. |
