Sharing Knowledge, Abating Ignorance, Advancing Humanism
The student Humanist Society has a library of books, magazines, and DVDs available to its members. The current Humanist Society librarian is Gareth Roberts. If you'd like to borrow an item, please contact him. If there's a book, DVD, or magazine that's relevent to Humanism, but not in the library, we can probably order a copy. Just let the librarian know.
Traditionally, the Philosophy and Humanist Societies have mutual rights to use each other's libraries. Members of the Philosophy Society continue to be welcome to borrow any item from our library. If you're a member of the Humanist Society and would like to browse or borrow books from the Philosophy Society library, please contact them according to the details on their webpage.
