Civil Rights & Social Justice collection

New at Gustavus LibraryWe’re pleased to announce access to the online Civil Rights & Social Justice collection.  This resource includes publications from the Commission on Civil Rights, legislative histories on landmark legislation, briefs from relevant U.S. Supreme Court cases, and more. This collection is provided to libraries at no cost by HeinOnline.

Looking for more from the Commission on Civil Rights? The library holds about 300 print titles from the Commission, located primarily on our Government Documents Collection on the lower level. They were published between the late 1950s and early 1980s and cover a wide range of topics (including employment discrimination, accessibility rights, women’s rights, education and busing, housing, Native American rights, and policing).
