So- you want to learn more about the intersection of inequity and the built environment?!
That's great!
manifestA has been collecting books that we are excited to share with the A-School.
Sharing material resources during a pandemic comes with risks. If you are uncomfortable sharing books, we encourage you to seek out digital copies of these titles through resources such as the HathiTrust or your local library system. If you would like to participate in the book sharing circuit:
1. Submit a request HERE including your name and the title you would like to borrow. Try to limit yourself to borrowing one book at a time so others might also have access.
2. Someone from manifestA will coordinate a contactless delivery if local to Charlottesville or will ship the book via USPS media mail within 2-5 days.
PLEASE TAKE PRECAUTIONS AND FOLLOW BEST PRACTICES DURING THE PANDEMIC. Library researchers currently recommend a 72 hour quarantine for physical materials based on our current understanding of COVID transmission. We also realize this step may involve the costs of packing and shipping. USPS media mail is generally a very reasonable shipping rate. If you are uncomfortable with incurring these costs as part of participating in the book share, please let us know.
3. Now read! Learn! Take notes! Find inspiration!
4. Let us know when you are done with the book! We will either pick it up or let you know who is next in line to borrow it.
