I'm in love with this project, a fabulous way to help restore meaningful sovereignty for the Saginaw Chippewa! The Saginaw Chippewa Tribal Libraries are indigenizing library science with a new clan-based cataloging system called Maawn Doobiigeng (Gather Together). The new classification system also doubles as a teaching tool, helping library users gain more knowledge of the clans and Anishinaabemowin – the Anishinaabe language. Kudos Anne Heidemann and colleagues!
