Each year, March is designated as National Women’s History Month. The 2010 theme is “Writing Women Back into History.” Even when recognized in their own times, women are frequently left out of the history books.

Women’s History Month provides an excellent venue to recognize and celebrate women’s historic achievements as well as an opportunity to honor women within our families and communities. Brochures with more information on the 30th anniversary of the National Women’s History Project are available at the main desk.
