Exploring Diverse Books: Diversity Day

Find Diverse Books

We've modified the "Big 9" categories taught in the NMH Diversity & Social Justice curriculum to tag diverse fiction in the library collection, making these books easier to find.

Click on a tag below to see books in the library collection featuring that identifier.

[Note: most books from the past two years or so have been tagged, but most older books have not. Ask a librarian if you aren't seeing what you hoped for, or if you're looking for more!]
