Throughout U.S. history, women of every race and class have
made contributions that have helped to shape and strengthen the country.
In 1987, Congress declared the month of March Women’s History Month
to recognize women's contributions and to promote the teaching of women's
history.
To celebrate Women's History Month this year, we have compiled
a bibliography consisting of books, journal articles, websites and other
information resources to accompany the exhibit on the first floor of McCain
Library featuring women artists and their contributions to art.
