North American Indigenous peoples

Description

Preferred subject terms to describe Indigenous peoples with ties to Iowa State University land. With the assistance of tribal representatives who responded to outreach efforts, the Metadata Services department of Iowa State University Library compiled this vocabulary as a resource for library, museum, and cultural heritage organizations wishing to supplement or replace Library of Congress Subject Headings for Indigenous peoples. For more information, see our Resources and Services for Iowa Indigenous Peoples LibGuide; normalization rules for applying these terms automatically in Ex Libris Alma; and our article in LRTS about the project (https://doi.org/10.5860/lrts.66n1.48).
