D'Arcy McNickle Center for American Indian and Indigenous Studies
The D’Arcy McNickle Center for American Indian and Indigenous Studies was created in 1972 to promote the usage of the books, manuscripts, maps and from the collections at the Newberry library. This includes the extensive collection of items acquired by Edward Ayer including commission portraits by Elbridge Ayer Burbank. Other goals of the center include improving the quality of written work about American Indians and Indigenous peoples, providing programs to introduce teachers to American Indian histories, literature and culture and creating a meeting ground for researchers, tribal historians and teachers to meet discuss their work. The center coordinates annual seminars, workshops and conferences and provides fellowships for continuing research.〔http://www.newberry.org/darcy-mcnickle-center-american-indian-and-indigenous-studies〕
==History==
For four decades, the McNickle Center’s staff, fellows, and affiliated research projects, have played a major role in shaping modern scholarship in American Indian and indigenous studies. Scholars on various fellowships have produced nearly fifty books and over 100 scholarly articles. The Center’s current activities include academic seminars in American Indian Studies, fellowships for scholars, public programs, and the (Newberry Consortium in American Indian Studies ) (NCAIS) and its related programs.
An advisory council helped guide the Center at its inception. Composed of prominent scholars and intellectual leaders from across the country, the council had a majority-Indian membership. They chose D’Arcy McNickle (a member of the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes and prominent scholar and literary author) to serve as the first director and help formulate the Center’s above-stated mission.〔The Newberry Library, D'Arcy McNickle Center for American Indian and Indigenous Studies Self-Study, 1 April 2013.〕 Among the directors who succeeded McNickle are Francis Jennings, Frederick Hoxie, Craig Howe (Oglala Lakota), Brian Hosmer, and Scott Manning Stevens (Akwesasne Mohawk). Since 2014 Dr. Patricia Marroquin Norby has been director of the McNickle Center.
