Answer

Brief Explanations:

The passage focuses on Brian Deer's classification system for Indigenous collections. Sentence 3 should introduce Brian Deer in a way that connects to his work with Indigenous - related classification. Option D mentions that he is a tribal member of the Mohawks of Kahnawà:ke, which ties him to the Indigenous context and better sets up the connection to his work in classifying Indigenous collections compared to other options that just mention his academic degree without the Indigenous - related identity.

Answer:

D. Brian Deer, a tribal member of the Mohawks of Kahnawà:ke, completed his master's degree in library science from McGill University in Canada.
