Critical thinking skills and common sense are crucial for site evaluation. There is rarely a notation in the citation that a particular individual is an American Indian. Researchers should use general works on these subjects or anthologies to identify individuals or trends for further study. The Reference collection contains a number of helpful works in these areas. The Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction and the American Indian Language and Culture Education Board have produced a number of important tools for classroom teachers in their units on American Indians.
