Books and Display Celebrating Black History Month

February is Black History Month, a fantastic opportunity to celebrate the myriad of contributions Black people have made to our society and country for so many years. To support this, we wanted to display books on Black theology and history, both electronic books or in print. Also be sure to stop by the library lobby to see our Black History Month display!
