Abstract
UCC Library's Boole Book Display features thematic displays of books from general collections. By celebrating events like Cork Pride and Black History Month, book displays foster connection and inclusion with students and staff. Guest displays with UCC student societies enable collaboration by engaging students in theme selection and curation, highlighting the breadth of our collections. Guest displays align with UCC Library's Vision and Plan 2024-2028, which champions Students as Partners. We also collaborate with UCC departments and units to promote events such as Equality Week. Wellbeing displays at exam time support students with stress management and resilience.
