Many thanks to Executive Director Susan Perry, the SEMC Council, Past President David Butler (who stepped into my shoes), the Program Committee, and all of the sponsors, presenters, and conference participants for making it one of SEMC’s best attended and most successful conferences on record.

  • 2007 National Conference of Tribal Archives, Libraries, and Museums
    2 2007 National Conference of Tribal Archives, Libraries, and Museums About the Conference Logo The conference logo incorporates The Guard- ian by renowned Master Artist, Seminole Chief, and retired Oklahoma State Senator Kelly Haney. The sculpture stands prominently atop the Oklahoma State Capitol. Rising to a height of twenty-two feet and weighing 4,000 pounds, it embodies the diversity within the proud and strong population of Oklahoma, while serving as a reminder of tumultuous times. The Guardian signifies the thousands of Na- tive Americans that were forced from their homes during the 1800s and exemplifies the valor of Oklahomans and their ability to overcome tragedies. Senator Kelly Haney, speaking as The Guard- ian, provides this insight into the symbolism of the statue: “My lance pierces my legging and is planted in the ground. I will not be moved from my duty, from my love of Oklahoma and all of its people—people who have come from far and near, people who have withstood adversities and hardships, and still stand strong and proud. I will stand my ground. I will stand guard over our great state, over our majestic land, over our values, I will not be moved.” Senator Haney’s message to you, as a “Guardian of Culture,” is to, “Dream big. Work hard. Believe deeply … for this is just the beginning. Let us all rise to our potential.” The Artist Truly a modern-day renaissance man, Enoch Kelly Haney’s talents span two separate spheres— namely politics and art. Born on November 12, 1940, to William Woodrow and Hattie Louise Haney, Enoch grew up in Seminole, Oklahoma.
