This recorded presentation describes a project to train librarians to create subject headings for Indigenous nations. It also reports on the creation of a set of best practices based on feedback from participants in the project.
This manual provides guidance on creating subject heading proposals for Indigenous topics that can be submitted to the Subject Authority Cooperative Program (SACO) for addition to the Library of Congress Subject Headings.
This presentation focuses on an Oregon State University Libraries and Press (OSULP) project to propose subject headings for tribes with traditional territories in Oregon. Participants will learn strategies to approach cataloging Indigenous groups and the nuances in this work.

During the summer of 1986, an archaeological testing project was
completed at seven prehistoric campsites primarily located in the
upper Deschutes River Basin of central Oregon. Testing was focused on
two low-density "lithic scatters", an archaelogical site type which is
