The Oklahoma Chapter of the Association of Research and College Libraries (OK-ACRL) is a professional organization for all Oklahoma students, librarians, and individuals interested in academic librarianship. Membership in OK-ACRL is FREE.
The office address of OK-ACRL occupies a portion of the traditional, ancestral lands of the HAsinai and OhCHAYtee ShaKOwi[n] nations, commonly called the Caddo and Sioux. This territory was also held for a time by the WahZHAzhe or Osage nation, and in the 1800s the OGAxpa (Quapaw) Kiikaapoi and Mvskoke were forcibly located here by the federal government.
Members of the chapter live and work on lands that belonged to these and other nations, and the means by which that land came to them is the same. OK-ACRL acknowledges the sovereignty of these nations and honors their contributions to the past, present, and future of Oklahoma and of the United States.
We encourage you to research the native history of the land on which you stand, and to reach out to those nations and take action in support of their goals. We have provided a document with resources to begin this research.
The process of knowing and acknowledging the land we stand on is a way of honoring and expressing gratitude for the ancestral people who were on this land before us.
