The Maawn Doobiigeng System categorizes books by their relation to the seven original Anishinaabe clans and their areas of knowledge. They are also marked as Aadizookan (factual) or Dibaajimowinan (embellished). Spine labels indicate the appropriate age for reading and if the books were written by an Indigenous author.
