MJC Library & Learning Center

The L&LC proudly celebrates Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander (AANHPI) heritage month.

In 2022, this decades long celebration was officially expanded to Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander Heritage Month. This name change is meant to bring broader visibility to the various communities, their diverse cultures, important contributions, unique perspectives , and distinct needs.

Check out our AANHPI Heritage Month research guide that features true stories, books, articles, digital exhibits, and organizations showcasing and celebrating the rich history and present of AANHPI individuals and communities.
