Celebrating Black History Month!

February is dedicated as Black History Month, which honors and celebrates the achievements of African Americans throughout history. The Marvin Pomerantz Business Library advocates for us all to be agents of change. These ideas improve equity and promote more diverse opportunities at the university, in the workforce and the larger community. Let’s build up our communities together.

Every Monday in February, we are holding pop-up sessions in the Biz Hub with library material, books and databases that celebrate and dive deeper into topics focused on diversity in business.

Be sure to check out our Diversity in Business guide for more information!
