Inclusiveness - a core value

Inclusiveness is a core value for everyone who works in our library. We go out of our way to provide a "welcoming environment [that ] fosters respect for all individuals and points of view." Throughout the month of November we have tried to be particularly aware of inclusiveness, and many of us have taken steps to increase our awareness of the rich diversity available to us on campus. Last night,  I attended the "Find Yosef a Holiday" fair in the student union, a fun way to learn more about holidays and customs that I already knew about and quite a few that I had never heard of.  A special treat was meeting one of our Library student assistants who was volunteering to work at one of the booths.
