​Library offers online diversity databases

By Claire Tully | Campus Writer | December 1

Auburn University Libraries had recently released new online databases covering diversity topic such as African Americans, Native Americans and gender. Bonnie MacEwan, dean of libraries, they periodically bring ideas to the provost office and diversity databases were one of those ideas. “Obviously one of the things we want to support is research and exploration in diversity topics and it’s actually something we’re asked for a lot,” MacEwan said. There are several librarians researching to see what resources are in demand for students, according to MacEwan. “We have a library that’s assigned to every subject that’s taught at Auburn and part of their job is to work with the departments and think about what’s needed for instruction and research,” MacEwan said. Liza Weisbrod, Auburn librarian, said these librarians report back to them with a list of desired resources. “We basically talk to these librarians and ask if they’ve had requests from students or faculty for things that they think the library could use and that students could use for classes or research and we compiled quite an extensive list,” Weisbrod said.
