Join NCW Libraries in observing and commending the suffragists, visionaries and trailblazing women — past and present — who have fought for equality and are leading the way for change in America.
March is Women’s History Month. This year’s theme, “Leading the Change: Women Shaping a Sustainable Future”, expands our understanding of sustainability beyond just environmental concerns. It encompasses financial sustainability, community resilience, leadership succession, and intergenerational equity. Whether developing green technologies, advancing economic justice, strengthening education systems, or building civic power – women are designing blueprints for sustainable transformation. This theme affirms that shaping a sustainable future means fostering systems that support both people and the planet.
There are many ways your library card can help you can celebrate Women’s History Month through books, movies, music and online resources highlighting the voices and experiences of women. To get started, our Collections Team has curated a list of books for all ages in English and Spanish:
