Emory Libraries on Diversity

Emory Libraries align with the University's statement on diversity which reads as follows:

The Emory community is open to all who have a commitment to the highest ideals of intellectual engagement, critical inquiry, and integrity. We welcome a diversity of gender identities, sexual orientations, abilities, and disabilities, as well as racial, ethnic, cultural, socioeconomic, religious, national, and international backgrounds, believing that the academic and social energy that results from such diversity is essential to advancing knowledge, addressing society’s most pressing issues, and attending to the full spectrum of human needs in service to the common good.

Restrooms 

At Emory University, individuals may use restrooms that most closely align with their gender identity. For individuals who are not comfortable using multistall single gender restrooms, Emory’s Office of LGBT Life has compiled a list of single-stall or single-occupant restrooms on campus.

Investments in External Open Access Initiatives

Equitable access to information for all humankind is a fundamental goal for libraries, and we at Emory Libraries are proud to showcase our investments in open access initiatives external to our campus. These initiatives help ensure that people from all parts of the globe can access the full text of published scholarly works, leading to faster, more effective responses to worldwide issues such as climate change, pandemics, and more.
