Native American Heritage Month Resources
November is Native American Heritage Month, also known as American Indian and Alaska Native Heritage Month. It's a time to celebrate rich and diverse cultures, traditions, and histories and to acknowledge the important contributions of Native people. Our librarians have hand-picked a selection of books in recognition of this celebratory month. Many of the resources in this list can be viewed in ebook format. Patrons can also review the books in person by visiting the display at Payson Library.
