We at the library understand that the subjects mentioned in this finding aid can be difficult things to discuss, encounter, and/or experience. We present this information, as difficult and complex as it is, so that patrons can educate themselves about matters that affect their lives and the lives of those in their larger community, ask questions, pursue answers, and otherwise advocate in a manner consistent with their perspective.
We also recognize that those seeking information about these topics may be in the midst of crisis. If you are in crisis, we encourage you to reach out immediately to the appropriate crisis resources below. If needed, library staff at the circulation desk can help direct you.
