Scope and Contents

The Great Lakes regional subject files include materials about Native American communities and gaming in Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Ohio, and Wisconsin, dating from approximately 1989 to 2007. The materials include socioeconomic reports; tribal-state gaming compacts; tribal constitutions and amendments; photographs; maps; correspondence; video recordings of televised programs; newsletters; memos from the National Indian Gaming Commission (NIGC), Minnesota Indian Gaming Association (MIGA), National Indian Gaming Association (NIGA), and National Gambling Impact Study Commission (NGISC); informational booklets and packets; legal briefs; journal articles; Federal Register listings; guidebooks; directories; promotional materials; and newspaper articles.

The Great Lakes subseries focuses primarily on Native American casino gaming in Michigan, Minnesota, and Wisconsin, but also includes materials about Native American casino gaming in other states and Native American communities within the Great Lakes region.

Additional information about Great Lakes Native Americans can be found in the Plains subject files.
