Discover the Bentley Women’s Center Library

We recently received an email from Kathryn Burgner, VP of Resource, Referral, and Recruitment for Bentley Women's Center, asking if we could help spread the word about the availability of books at the Women's Center library. Of course we wholeheartedly agreed to broadcast her message about this special collection!

After all, we think of ourselves as being in a partnership with the Women's Center.  The Bentley Library's Technical Services Department catalogs each of the books held at the Center so that members of the Bentley community can find them when they conduct searches in the library's catalog. Currently, the Women's Center library contains over 500 books on women’s and gender issues. With the recent relocation of the Women's Center to LaCava 120, now is the perfect time to acquaint yourself with all that they have to offer.  Here's what you should know about visiting and borrowing from the Women's Center library:

• Book topics include women's issues, LGTBQ issues, mental health, gender issues, sex and love, self-help, race and diversity issues, and entertainment/leisure.  Some of their more popular titles include He's Just Not that Into You, Chicken Soup for the Teenage Soul, and The Money Book for the Young, Fabulous, & Broke [Click here to see a complete list of titles]
• A current Bentley ID is required to borrow books.  The Women's Center staff will also request the email address and phone number at which you can be reached.
• Books are loaned for a period of 2 weeks, and may be renewed in-person or via email.
• Book purchase suggestions are encouraged!  Send your suggestions to GA_Womens_Center@bentley.edu

You can learn more about all the good things that the Women's Center does by visiting their web site, liking them on Facebook,  and following them on Twitter.  Better yet, stop by LaCava 120 to visit, browse and borrow!
