The Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Collection supports UNC’s vision element “Empower Inclusivity” by highlighting works that seek to acknowledge and celebrate the experiences of historically marginalized communities. The DEI Collection is intended to educate and inform, facilitate dialog, and spark engagement in a way that advances efforts to honor all voices and identities at our institution and beyond. If you want your work to appear in this collection, contact libraries@unco.edu.

To learn more about UNC’s commitment to DEI, see the Division of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion website and the University Libraries Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Statement.
