Abstract:
Relationality, or the acknowledgement that we all exist in relationship to
each other, is at the core of understanding Indigenous perspectives in the
library and information science (LIS) field. In this talk, Dr. Littletree
will discuss a conceptual framework that centers on the concept of
relationality, a framework that can be used to understand Indigenous
systems of knowledge in the LIS context. Littletree’s work contributes to
the body of research that documents what Indigenous librarians, archivists,
and technologists are doing to make spaces for Indigenous perspectives at
the practical, conceptual, and theoretical levels. Understanding Indigenous
systems of knowledge as an intellectual construct may inform better
practices for knowledge organization for Indigenous cultural heritage.
Registration for DCMI webinars is free with the discount code “DCMI25”.
