We celebrate Native American Heritage Month in November to recognize the achievements and contributions of Native Americans. In 1990 President George H. W. Bush approved a joint resolution designating November 1990 “National American Indian Heritage Month.” Similar proclamations, under variants on the name (including “Native American Heritage Month” and “National American Indian and Alaska Native Heritage Month”) have been issued each year since 1994.

The Mercer County Library System (link: Mercer County Library System ) has a selection of books on Native Americans:

• Coalition of Natives and Allies website (CNA is a cross-cultural collaboration of Native Americans and allies who value cultural diversity and respect for all peoples)

• Educational Resources from the Coalition of Natives and Allies (pdf)
