Featured Books - January/February 2008

As part of Unity Week at MICA, the Decker Library has created a display featuring books, quotes, and photos of Martin Luther King, Jr. and the Civil Rights movement.

The goal of Unity Week is to remember the accomplishments and contributions of Dr. King. It is also a collaborative project by the MICA community. Through various mediums, MICA students, faculty, and staff will contribute their thoughts and perspectives about unity, social justice, and civil rights to the Unity Collaboration Mural. The mural serves as an outlet to pay tribute to Dr. King using imagery and words.

The mural will be developed throughout the week in Bunting Center’s Pinkard Gallery, located across from Decker Library. The Decker Library display will remain up until March.

"Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter."
- Martin Luther King, Jr.

New books are displayed for one week upstairs at the Library, becoming available for check out each Friday - visit the Circulation Desk to place a hold on the book.
