Abstract
In Skåne, Southern region of Sweden, where the idea that no Sámis live in the area is largely spread across the Swedish population, the few Sámis living there find themselves navigating their ethnic identity, between performativity, agency, and making use of the policies implemented at a national level. In a context of ongoing decolonisation of the Sámis and their lands, official institutions such as public libraries and museums, following the laws and regulations they are subjected to, are working towards an evolution of their structure, their actions, and a wider inclusion of Sámi people in their institutions
