At the Wisconsin Water Library, we understand that the active inclusion of Wisconsin’s Indigenous voices in our work is essential to our goal of promoting Great Lakes Literacy. In fact, as libraries exist to serve their communities to the fullest, it is the responsibility of all libraries to both include and listen to the voices of their local Indigenous peoples.
It is our hope that the resources below will serve as a productive starting point for any library hoping to fulfill this responsibility.
Happy learning!
