In 1990 the U.S. Congress passed, and President George H. W. Bush signed into law a joint resolution designating November as Native American Heritage Month to recognize and affirm the origins, history, culture, and remarkable resilience of American Indians. To this end, CSN Libraries invites its users to engage with its print and electronic resources exploring the breadth of experiences of Native peoples some of which are noted below. In addition, the Smithsonian National Museum of the American Indian contains online exhibitions, educational resources, and collections/research support.
