New Titles from the Library’s Collection Supporting Diversity, Equity and Inclusion

As the college continues its anti-racism work, the library is here to support the campus and provide resources. We have added many new titles to our collection and would like to share some of these materials with you. Here and below you will find a list of some of the newer titles that help support diversity, equity, and inclusion. We encourage you to make recommendations for titles to add to our collection here! 

June is Pride Month and the library will have a display of LGBTQ+ books on the main floor. We hope that you will stop by and check out a book from it to read. We also have a LGBTQ+ Resources Guide of many more titles, including e-books, that are available to the Meredith community. 

Below are book titles we hope you will find helpful as we continue to move forward as a campus.
