Women's History Month
The Mercer University Libraries (MUL) is proud to celebrate Women’s History Month on behalf of our students, faculty, and staff. During the month of March, we are acknowledging women in technology. Check out the list of films to watch, books to read, web resources, and the slideshow presentation streaming at Douglas (in the lobby), Henry (in the lobby), Swilley (in the library), and on the MUL’s YouTube channel.
You can also take a photo with our Women’s History Month selfie sign.
