Terminology Note
Toronto Public Library recognizes that the term “Indians,” used in subject headings such as “Indians of North America,” is offensive to many people. Although we currently maintain these headings to adhere to descriptive standards used by libraries worldwide, we and other Canadian libraries are working to replace them with ones that are acceptable to Indigenous Peoples in Canada.
