Books on Display in February

Stop by Geisel Library to view two book displays, available through February 28, 2025. 

You are also welcome to borrow any materials that are on display.

Infinite Hope

This year Saint Anselm College’s annual celebration of the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., takes inspiration from a quote from Dr. King’s February 1968 sermon “Shattered Dreams,” in which he states: “We must accept finite disappointment, but never lose infinite hope.”  In honor of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Black History Month, and the College’s 2025 Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Celebratory Program, Geisel Library is highlighting items from our collection that focus on Dr. King’s life and reflect his message of hope for social change and vision of an equal society.  Check out the display on the main floor across from the IT Help Desk.

Celebrating Black Photographers

In celebration of Black History Month, this display pays tribute to photographers who have shaped (and continue to shape) history. The artists featured here represent just a small portion of the countless Black photographers who have played an essential role in documenting human life.

Pope Benedict XVI

An intellectual giant of our era, Pope Benedict XVI wrote prolifically both before and during his Pontificate. At Geisel Library, we are fortunate to possess numerous works written both by and about him.  We hope you enjoy our display honoring this teacher and pastor.
