As the calendar changes from February to March, our pop-up book display changes along with it. This month is Women’s History Month, with International Women’s Day falling on 8th March 2025.

The display includes several books on Women’s History in general. It also includes a selection of books written by, or on the subject of, prominent women in the different Social Science fields that you find in the SSL.
The books in this display are a mixture of physical books and eBooks. Some books are loanable and others are for use in the library only. If you are unsure, please ask a member of staff. The display was put together from the SSL’s own collection and also includes several items from the Collections Storage Facility. The display can be found around the corner from the Issue desk in the SSL and it will be up for the entire month of March.

International Women’s Day falls on 8th March every year. The theme for this year is Accelerate Action, with the purpose of accelerating action for gender equality.
