Why use these Notices?

This reflects Indigenous sensibilities and worldviews where these collections are not objects but need to be cared for as relatives and relations.
These Notices can be applied after engaging with community-specific Indigenous experts to determine the culturally appropriate care and governance for relatives and relations held in the collections.

The CC Notices are for implementation by institutions and repositories internally and directly on collections in storage spaces and databases as well as within policy, workflows, and practices surrounding the care and stewardship of these important collections. The CC Notices can be used in print and digital formats.
