While we celebrate African American history in the library all year, we had a display of books up in honor of African American History Month – which takes place in February of every year. The books on display celebrated African American men & women from many different fields & histories, as well as a few of our favorite novels written by African American authors! The library’s digital slideshow in February also featured notable African American women in history, with short biographies adapted from several books we have in the library.
