Black History Month II – Diversity Initiative reading list & Displays in Main Library

Diversity Initiative – Black History Month resource list

Two student societies – The Diversity Initiative  (TheDiversityInitiative@dundee.ac.uk)  and Afromedics  (AfroMedics@dundee.ac.uk) – have used our resource/reading list software (which powers module resource/reading lists)  to compile an annotated reading & viewing  list called Diversity Initiative- Black History Month containing  ‘a collection of fiction and factual texts and some videos’ . It’s divided into 4 sections,  with resources to be  released each week in October.   Why not have a look & see what they’re recommending?

Diversity Initiative -Black History Month resource List

Week 1: Reporting: The historical perspective of Black People.

Week 2: Relating: Putting History into context

Displays In Main Library, City Campus

When  you  visit the Main Library on City Campus you may  have noticed we have a book display in the Atrium just inside the doors.  The  ‘Black History month’ display is in the  two right hand bays.

On the far left the display gives information about  our ‘More books’ service  which you can use to recommend  titles which aren’t in stock,  but may be useful for your studies, dissertation, thesis or project.  See the Recommend a  Resource Libguide for further information.
