If you're into double-dipping, we have a lot of really excellent books about race and racial justice that would also count as A book about social justice or equity with black or white in the title.

We also have a good number of green books in our Phail Wynn Collection on the Main Campus.

These are just a few of the options available through the Durham Tech Library collections!


Want to explore a little more? Do a title search using your favorite color in our catalog (where you can also put a hold on a book from another community college library catalog) or in Dogwood Digital Library (which contains our ebooks and audiobooks through the Overdrive/Libby app). 


Happy reading! And remember that any of these books fit into our favorite category-- A book suggested by a Durham Tech Library staff member or on the Library blog!
