 *Preconference:* *Tribal History/Shared History: Programming and Resources*

Wednesday, 4/19/2023 at 1:00 pm

All Oregonians can benefit from understanding the vast diversity of the
Oregon Native American experience. K-12 schools statewide are implementing
the new Tribal History/Shared History curriculum that offers historically
accurate, culturally embedded, contemporary, and place-based curricula
developed in partnership with the nine federally recognized tribes in
Oregon. How can your programs and materials align with and support this
effort? Join your peers to learn how libraries can partner with, better
serve, and celebrate Indigenous people and cultures.

This preconference is sponsored and subsidized by the CSD and OASL.
