Covid-19 and the Library Update The library has shortened its hours for the time being: Mon-Fri 8:00-6:00 and Weekends 1:00-5:00. However, library staff will be working remotely, answering chats and emails, most of the other hours that the library is normally open. Nearly all of our resources are available online. As always, the back-up 24/7 chat librarians are available during hours we are not available.
Local students; We are not limiting the number of students in the library but are practicing social distancing. We are requiring that all books be returned to the book drops and not the desk. We have also suspended checking out jigsaw puzzles and games. All events and workshops have been canceled.
All library patrons must now wear masks while in the library. Protective plastic shields have been installed at the circulation and reference desk.
Welcome to the third in a new series of Hot Topics LibGuides - Gender. Gender identity, has been in the news for a few years now as it becomes clear that the traditional concepts of masculine and feminine gender differ from the two biological sexes., Today, in addition to male and female, there is another concept of gender referred to as non-binary. This third concept is more ambiguous, has many variations, and does not necessarily conform to a person's biological sex.. It has become the source of much debate and controversy. This LibGuide will examine the role of gender..in society. ..Library resources include print and electronic books, journal articles, streaming videos and subscription databases. Each print book title links directly to the record in eCatalog, while each e-book and each article links directly to the full text of the book or article.
