LibrariesDiversity & InclusionDiversity Committee
Diversity Committee

The Diversity Committee is tasked with programming and activities to address social justice and cultural and diversity awareness within the University of Tennessee Libraries. As a group, we hold discussions and volunteer at library- and campus-wide events, to learn from and engage with multicultural communities and groups. We expect members to be willing to grapple with or confront or address uncomfortable topics relating to social justice.

To join us, find our membership guidelines here.

What are we up to?

International Fest 2022

The Diversity Committee hosted a booth at the 2022 International Festival, hosted by the International House, which spotlighted cultural and ethnic foods. Interested onlookers can visit a LibGuide full of excellent recipes for international food and customs, or check out a cookbook from another country at Hodges Library!
