November is Indigenous Peoples & Native American Month! We have a guide, two book displays, and our digital film resource, Kanopy, has highlighted films.
The first display by the entrance has recently purchased books to check out (Shards of Silence, The Buffalo Hunter, That Which Feeds Us, How Settlers Get Away with Murder) as well as QR codes to selected digital resources from Libby.
Our digital film datbase, Kanopy, is highlighting Indigenous Peoples Month at https://www.kanopy.com/en/chattanoogastate/category/67095
We have another display of books that can be checked out highlighting the month.
And finally, our libguide contains many links to resources, books listed by categories, local indigenous site information, and much more. We have two state parks bordering near Hamilton County: Red Clay Historic State Park and Cherokee Trail of Tears State Park. Find the guide at https://library.chattanoogastate.edu/nativeamerica
Books in the guide are separated into Libby OverDrive books, A Selection of Books, Food & Kitchen Books, and Joy Harjo Books.
