New year brings new African studies library publications

The new year brings new works in the African Studies library collection!

African Studies Bibliographer Emilie Songolo works hard to keep African Studies collections updated and replete with works from the African continent while supporting African publishing houses by acquiring these new works directly from them. Below is a sample of the latest additions.

Additionally, Emilie Songolo will again offer open office hours following the African Studies Program’s weekly AFRICA AT NOON seminar in the spring semester. Office hours are scheduled directly after the noon seminar, from 1-2pm in 301 Ingraham Hall. Connect with Emilie regarding library collections, publications or research assistance.


Please note that each work is found in Memorial Library unless otherwise designated.
