“NDSU Libraries’ role has become even more pivotal and distinctive during the pandemic as we have enhanced our position in promoting equity, diversity and inclusion through diversification of our collection and practicing allyship within the NDSU community,” said Joe Mocnik, Dean of Libraries. “Our efforts to promote open access have helped the process of equalization that ensures academic information is easily discoverable and accessible for all. I encourage you to visit one of our locations or engage with us online to learn more about our array of services and resources.”
