ADVANCING AMERICAN INDIAN ART
To commemorate the 800th anniversary of the signing of the Magna Carta, here is a sampling of four selections from the library collection related to the law. The democratic aspirations of 13th-century English barons recorded in this document became embedded in the US Constitution. A few examples of how federal law has impacted the lives of American Indians are examined in these four selections currently on display in the public reading area of the library.
