In 2024 IMLS completed a multi-year study of its four grant programs dedicated to serving Native American, Alaska Native, and Native Hawaiian communities. Designed to help IMLS understand how it can better align with Indigenous values through its library and museum services grantmaking, this effort is the agency’s first comprehensive evaluation of these long-standing programs. Presenters will share how the study was built and highlight significant findings.

Presenters:

  • Emily Plagman-Frank, IMLS Strategic Evaluation and Research Officer
