Civic Engagement

In the mail today, I received the most recent edition of College & Research Libraries monthly publication. One of this month's features is on Civic Engagement as an important component of higher education. They had a wonderful listing of web-sites for readers to engage this subject manner in a very profound manner. Check out the following, and feel free to share your thoughts on the types of information you found.

Have a wonderful day,
Leslie
