Later this month, the United Nations will host the 65th session of the Commission on the Status of Women (CSW). At the annual session, participants review progress being made, set new standards, and construct policies that promote gender equality across the world.  To celebrate the 65th annual session, the United Nations iLibrary has released a collection of books, articles, chapters, and data sets directly related to this year's theme.

The $12.4 million project to renovate the iconic Lilly Library is coming to a close. Librarians and outside contractors are planning the process that will take collections now housed in several secure campus locations back home to the Lilly Library. The months-long process of moving collections will also disrupt our services—even more than the global pandemic already has.

Regretfully, Lilly Library reference and digitization services must be suspended from March 1 through at least August 15, 2021 to accommodate the moving back process.
