A number of professional organizations and working groups have been developing inclusive description policies, resources, and approaches that can be leveraged in a wide range of institutional contexts. In March 2023, we launched Indigenous Description Group (IDG)–modeled after SNAC’s Enslaved Description Group (EDG)–within SNAC’s Editorial Standards Working Group. The goals of the IDG are to 1) improve accessibility to archival collections for Indigenous Tribal communities; 2) mitigate harm caused by extractive collecting processes; and 3) engage in reparative description across systems, at scale, and in an interoperable way.en-USIndigenousNative AmericanarchivesIndigenous collectionsinclusive descriptionreparative descriptionrepatriationreturnmetadataSNACsocial networks and archival contextNative archivesIndigenizeSNACIndigenizing methodsdecolonizing methodsIndigenous data sovereigntyArticle
