The purpose of these guides on using Native American Information Resources is to help students and professionals find the useful, meaningful, important, and most objective sources available in the field. Materials addressing Native issues are selected for their honorable representation of the Native American point of view or for their utility, but important resources addressing historical aspects of Native America are often written or edited by U.S. government-sponsored agencies or non-Indians. Therefore, evaluating Native American sources requires special considerations.
