In celebration of Women's History Month, the University of Dayton Women's Center and University Libraries have partnered with the Conscious Connect, a non-profit organization in Dayton, Ohio dedicated to school-age and neighborhood literacy. The Conscious Connects creates literary oases in low-to-moderate income neighborhoods and communities to #EndBookDeserts. Our goal is to collect 1000 books focusing on women in STEM, historical figures and strong women role models, with an emphasis on racial and ethnic minorities. It's critical young girls and women see themselves represented in books, and have access to positive role models of trail-blazing women.
