October 7 to 11, 2024 is National Voter Education Week, are you ready to cast your vote on November 5th?
Voter education makes the voting process easy and straightforward. Get practical steps to register, understand your ballot, and find your polling place. Let’s navigate voting together this #NationalVoterEducationWeek!
You will have many important decisions to make leading up to the election. We want to ensure your voice is heard and you make informed decisions. CSUM Library created our own Election 2024 guide. This website offers information on voter registration, resources for California ballot measures, where to fact-check hot topics, the best news sources, and how to read and evaluate polls.
During Voter Education Week you can expect to see educational campaigns (online & in-print) and events across campus. The Cal Maritime Library will have a physical display of books and movies, and voting FAQs posted around the library. We also encourage you to check out our Democracy in America reading list.
Visit NationalVoterEducationWeek.org to get everything you need to vote with confidence!
The issues connecting to library resources from off campus using EZProxy, and accessing EBSCO databases without logging in while on campus, have been fixed. EZProxy was working intermittently because only 1 of 3 servers was functioning correctly; all 3 are now working. If you get any error messages while accessing library resources, please tell us about the issue!
November is National American Indian Heritage Month in the United States. To celebrate, the Library will highlight some of the movies and books in our collection that spotlight the experience of Native American communities, both historical and current. Come check them out!
The Library of Congress-hosted website for Native American Heritage Month has information about events and information "paying tribute to the rich ancestry and traditions of Native Americans."
As we welcome you to the Cal Maritime Library, we acknowledge that we are on the traditional ancestral and historical lands of the Karkin Ohlone people. As guests on this land, we honor the original indigenous people, past, present, and future, for their centuries of stewardship and continued resilience. We commit to be good guests as we live, work, learn and play on this land. To learn more about the indigenous tribes of other areas, we encourage you to visit: https://native-land.ca.
