Scope and Content Note

The BIOGRAPHCAL/PERSONAL PAPERS series consists of news clippings dealing predominately with Veda Stone's career, honors and awards conferred upon her, and publicity about her work with various Indian people and organizations. Also included are correspondence files, demonstrating the personal relationships she had with her many students, friends, and colleagues, as well as personal notes and speeches.

The CONFERENCES AND WORKSHOPS series consists of papers from conferences pertaining to Native Americans and Native American Education, at which she either attended, organized or presented. These papers consist of timetables, schedules; agenda, copies of proceedings, speeches and publications, correspondence, and handwritten notes from sessions and are arranged alphabetically by conference title.

The EDUCATIONAL RESOURCES series has been divided into two segments, those dealing with educational materials in general and those detailing specific school programs about and for Native Americans. The educational materials are mostly articles and reference materials that deal with the issues and concerns in educating Native American students as well as materials about Native American people and culture.

The bulk of this series relates to Mount Senario College (Ladysmith, Wisconsin) where Stone created the American Indian program and was on staff and a member of the Board of Trustees. Her role in the success of Mount Senario can also be seen in the correspondence files.

The GOVERNMENT AGENCIES/PROGRAMS series have been divided into Federal and State headings. The federal files are mostly made up of publications about education, Native Americans and social concerns. The bulk of materials concern Federal Education programs such as: Title I: Education for the Disadvantaged, Title IV: The 21st Century School program, and Title V: Promoting Informed Parental Choice and Innovative Programs. These materials document specific schools in Northern Wisconsin and the Minneapolis (Minnesota) regions, and consist of grants, applications, reports, newsletters and personal notes written by Stone. The State subseries consists of publications created by the State of Wisconsin, concerning children, public instruction and education.

The ORGANIZATIONS series has been arranged alphabetically by title of organization. Stone was a member of most of these organizations and also played a vital role in the creation of several others including Great Lakes Inter Tribal Conference (later the Great Lakes Inter-Tribal Council, Inc.), Wisconsin Demonstration in Indian Educational Opportunities (WDIEO) and the Wisconsin Indian Opportunities, Inc. (WIO). These records consist of informational materials, minutes, correspondence , memoranda, grant proposals, applications, program reports and financial records.

The PUBLICATIONS series consists of reports, articles, newsletters and theses and date from the early 1960s to the early 1990s. Most of the materials are about American Indian people and culture and education, primarily in Wisconsin.

The REFERENCE files series consists of a variety of subjects and information on various Wisconsin and Native American topics, including individual Wisconsin tribes, Native American poetry and treaty rights.

The SPECIAL EVENTS AND PROJECTS series document the various events and projects that Stone either created or was involved in, with the exception of the Pow Wows files, where she was an invited guest. Stone was a member of various Arts Boards and was an advocate for Native American Arts, documented through advertisements, catalogs, and other materials about specific events and projects that promoted the arts.
