    Apologies for any duplication. 

    The Press at Cal Poly Humboldt would like to announce the special edition of the Humboldt Journal of Social Relations on the topic Academic Libraries Creating Global Community: Operating Outside of Traditional Roles and Spaces.

    Here are the links where you can access the publication.

    Libraries are frequently viewed through historical perspectives as passively providing information resources to students and faculty, but today's most innovative college and university libraries have become so much more to their campuses and communities. Our librarian editorial team assembled and edited some of the best library community work across the nation to rightly celebrate the range and import of these critical efforts. We hope this publication will serve as an inspiration to librarians everywhere to tackle challenges beyond their own traditional library walls.

     

    Best,
