Come explore some lesser known but vibrant corners of our collections, as we highlight languages with smaller speaking communities such as Ladino, Kurdish, and Sorbian.

Language is the beating heart of the library’s International Studies department. In our effort to promote inclusion, cross-cultural learning, and global citizenship, we collect, describe, and provide research support for resources in dozens of non-English languages and non-Latin scripts.

Join us for Third Thursdays at the Library, a themed monthly open house where we share materials from our collections. While you’re here, pick up a Third Thursday Passport and collect a stamp from each of the Third Thursday Open Houses — Asia Library, Clark Library, International Studies, and Special Collections Research Center — to win a prize!
