Native American History Month Resources
In honor of Native American History Month, and the university's place within Penobscot Nation homeland, here is a list of books and sections of books by Wabanaki authors, all of which are available through awihkhikaní-wikəwαm (“book house,” or “Fogler Library,” in the Penobscot language).
In addition, stop by Merrill Library to explore our special display featuring books by Native American authors, with books covering Native American history, art, and culture. This collection celebrates Native American Heritage Month and highlights the many contributions Native peoples have made to UMM, the UMaine community, and beyond. Come discover the rich stories and perspectives that honor Indigenous heritage!
