Women's and Gender Studies

A guide to assist Washburn University women's and gender studies students and faculty with their library research.

Welcome!

This is a site to help Washburn University women's studies students and faculty with their research. This guide is intended as a pathfinder to University Library resources in women's studies. As such, it is not a comprehensive list of resources, but a suggested research guide. Comments are welcome.

About the Women's Studies Guide

The Center for Undergraduate Studies offers a minor in Women's and Gender Studies, an interdisciplinary program. This program is "devoted to encouraging research on women and gender, sponsoring events focused on issues relevant to women and gender, and promoting outreach across the campus and to the larger community."

The University Libraries support the study, teaching, and research mission of the department by collecting materials in a variety of formats concerning women, theoretical and technical aspects of the various branches of women's studies, as well as other related interdisciplinary areas.
