Social Justice & Activism

The Erin McKenzie Virtual Welcoming Space at Otterbein Courtright Memorial Library (http://library.otterbein.edu/ErinMcKenzie/index.htm) encourages conversations and facilitates discovery of cultures, experiences, struggles and how we are connected. The welcoming space celebrates the gifts and talents in each of us in hopes of creating inclusive communities where all are valued. Annual events are planned with this vision in mind.
