Online bookshelf: LGBTQ+ inclusion
June is International Pride Month! At the Forum Library, you’ll find a whole bookshelf dedicated to LGBTQ+ topics, and we’ve also updated our online bookshelf with new titles on LGBTQ+ inclusion.

Series online bookshelves
WUR's Diversity and inclusion officers, together with students and staff from the the LGBTI+ community have selected the books for this bookshelf. We believe that providing access to these resources will help foster a more inclusive campus community, and we encourage everyone to take advantage of this opportunity to expand their knowledge and promote acceptance of all individuals, regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity.
WUR Library has created several other online bookshelves on skills. The links are at the right-hand side of this news item.
