Welcome to the Geraldine Fenn Memorial Library

The Women's Center houses a lending library that contains over 1,500 books, magazines, and audiotapes that cover a wide range of topics concerning women. Subjects include: women's studies, health, work, international issues, biography, fine arts, science, psychology, philosophy and religion, lesbian and gay studies, and a large fiction section. Most of the materials in our library are donated, though we do occasionally purchase new items. Materials are available for loan to all students, staff, faculty, and community members.

It's a great place to research class assignments, explore new interests, stay current on women's issues, or just read quietly. You'll be amazed!
