New Display on the Holiday of Kwanzaa



The Ort Library is pleased to present a new display, Kwanzaa: First Fruits of the Harvest, located on the third (Main) floor of the library.  The display provides a brief history of the holiday and introduces Nguzo Saba, or the Seven Principles of Kwanzaa.  Additional information about the holiday includes information on the seven basic symbols of Kwanzaa that represent the values and concepts reflective of African Culture.

Additionally, a handout is available that provides information on books available on Kwanzaa that are available here at Frostburg and at other University of Maryland System Libraries.
