Supporting the University Library

The UTEP Library is an extraordinary resource for both teaching and research that addresses the University’s international mission. As a specialist in African and imperial history, I am continually amazed by the array of materials that are available—expanding rapidly as more and more documents are digitized. Now my students can read Nigerian newspapers from the 1930s or documents from the Freedom Struggle in South Africa. Or explore the hundreds of volumes of British records of the slave trade and colonization. It’s an exciting moment for research and for libraries, but we need to ensure that UTEP students have the same access and opportunities as their counterparts in other research institutions.
