Citizen Potawatomi Nation

The Citizen Potawatomi Nation library in Shawnee, Oklahoma, will assign dedicated personnel to research and gather educational materials that are historically, culturally, traditionally, and genealogically significant to Algonquin tribes, the Neshnabek and Potawatomi. The library plans to increase its collection by 15 percent by acquiring new literature, American Indian periodical subscriptions, and multi-media resources. Staff also will assist scholars, tribal members, and other visitors to ensure that they enjoy a more comprehensive experience when visiting the library. To develop the skills necessary to reach this goal, the library archivist plans to participate in the annual conference of the Association of Tribal Archives, Libraries, and Museums.
