“…The NLM traveling exhibit pilot test phase identified various implementation issues that needed fine tuning, as well as opportunities for extended outreach to local Native American and library user communities. For example, the University of New Mexico Health Sciences Library and Informatics Center (in Albuquerque) focused on Native Voices traveling and online versions, which reached several tribal college and tribal serving university libraries in New Mexico [ 31 ].…”

The U.S. National Library of Medicine (NLM) exhibition known as Native Voices reflected Donald A.B. Lindberg M.D.’s keen and long-held desire to help improve public understanding of Native American health challenges and honor the culture, tradition, and healing ways of Native Peoples. A centerpiece of the exhibition was a large set of video interviews that Dr. Lindberg conducted with Native health and community leaders. Dr. Lindberg and his team engaged Native advisors in the exhibition development; sought Native input through Listening Circles, Tribal Consultations; and site visits, and made the video interviews accessible via interactive kiosks and iPads. For its time, this was state-of-the-art exhibition technology. The exhibition also included Native artifacts and art works to complement the videos, including a scale model of the iconic Hokule’a Native Hawaiian voyaging canoe, and a full-size Lummi Indian healing totem pole. The totem journeyed across the U.S. prior to its installation next to the NLM herbal garden in Bethesda, MD. A traveling version of the exhibition visited more than 130 venues in 40 States across the U.S. The interview clips and other content are accessible on the exhibition website, and the full-length interviews are retained in the NLM permanent video collection.

“…The spike in engagement and outreach we observed from 2003-2006 coincided with NLM's Native American Outreach gaining programmatic status in 2004[9]. Furthermore, NLM support made Tribal Connections[9, 40-51, 69, 70, 99, 100] and the Native Voices exhibits[83][84][85][87][88][89], the two most widespread programs identified, possible. NLM funding distributed via NNLM regions was crucial to many local programs.…”

Objective: Through this scoping review we sought to identify trends and themes in how academic health sciences libraries in the United States, Canada and Mexico have supported engagement and outreach with Native Americans, Alaska Natives, First Nations, and Indigenous peoples, in or from those same countries. We also sought to learn and share culturally effective practices for libraries engaging with these communities.Methods: We searched seven bibliographic databases, E-LIS, and multiple sources of grey literature. Results were screened using Covidence and Google Sheets. We utilized Arksey and O’Malley’s framework for scoping reviews and followed principles from Joanna Briggs Institute’s Manual for Evidence Synthesis. We also followed the PRISMA and PRISMA-S guidelines. We determined types of interventions used by academic health sciences libraries in engagement with our included populations, the level of public participation reached by these interventions, what partnerships were established, and what practices emerged.Results: Database searching returned 2,050 unique results, 110 of which were relevant and screened in full text. Additional searching returned 211 unique results for full text screening. After screening, 15 results from database searching were included, and 50 from other sources. From these 65 reports, 45 unique programs were identified. Data extraction was conducted on these programs to identify partners, intervention type, and evaluation method. The programs were categorized using the IAP2 Spectrum of Public Participation.Conclusions: Our scoping review found that many programs were health information trainings, and did not move beyond informing the public with little further involvement. The need for sustained funding, greater community participation and more publishing on engagement and outreach are discussed.

Academic and research libraries historically lack intentional engagement with Black, Indigenous and People of Color (BIPOC) communities. This scoping review examines how academic and research library literature address social justice issues by engaging BIPOC with science, technology, engineering, mathematics, and/or medicine (STEMM) disciplines in North America. The review included published and unpublished literature by all types of library workers from varying education levels and used resources found within education databases and sources known as “grey literature.” Findings identified a prevalence of BIPOC engagement via health topics with off-campus communities in comparison to limited interaction with BIPOC college and university students. A variety of engagement strategies and activities are discussed as unique opportunities and avenues for libraries to address issues related to social justice, diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging.
