Celebrate Women’s History this March

Take some time this month to explore the vast contributions women have made to our country and the world. NDSU Libraries provide access to a number of diverse resources reflective of the wide array of political, social, cultural, academic, and professional activities undertaken by women throughout history. Browse this collection of books about women’s history, take a deep dive into the research literature, and don’t forget to explore government exhibits honoring Women’s History Month.

Women’s history is local history too. For an exciting peek into how the women of Fargo campaigned for suffrage, take a look at the meeting minutes for the Fargo Chapter of the Votes for Women League.
