Women's Studies Student Resource Center

The Women's Studies Student Resource Center opened in Fall 2009. It is located on the ground floor of the Liberal Arts Building, Room 22. It includes the Women's Studies library, student computer work station, and a quiet study area. We welcome all students to use the center.

Women's Studies Library

The Women's Studies Program houses an extensive collection of books on feminism, gender studies, and contemporary issues affecting women. The library is located in the Women's Studies Student Resource Center. The collection has been assembled through the generous donations made by the community for over 30 years. Materials are available for student, staff, and faculty on a loan basis. Please use the library link to search for available titles.
