Native American Constitution and Law
Digitization Project

Coordinated by

The University of Oklahoma Law Center Library
National Indian Law Library
The University of
Oklahoma
Law Library

and
The National Indian
Law Library
of the
Native American
Rights Fund


The Project was created as a cooperative effort between the University of Oklahoma College of Law Library  and the National Indian Law Library (NILL), to provide access to the tribal constitutions, codes, and other legal documents. Project Coordinators were David Selden (NILL) and Marilyn Nicely (OU).

The Project began in 1996. The developing technology of the World Wide Web offered a new opportunity to share information. The University of Oklahoma College of Law Library partnered with the National Indian Law Library to acquire and digitize these materials at a time when tribal documents were very difficult to find. The Project was created as a public service. Tribal documents were shared with permission from the National Indian Law Library or donated directly by tribal members. Other materials included are federal government documents in the public domain or publications shared with the permission of their creators.
