“Our History is our Strength” is the national Women’s History Month theme for 2011.

2011 is also the centennial anniversary of the YWCA of South Hampton Roads. The ODU Libraries would like to take this month to promote and celebrate the YWCA which "has served as a source of strength to over a quarter million women and children in Hampton Roads." This Web site and a corresponding exhibit feature materials from the archives of the YWCA of South Hampton Roads which are held in Special Collections of the ODU Libraries.

Visit the exhibit on the 2nd floor near the Circulation Desk through April 15, 2010
to learn more about the 100 year history of the YWCA South Hampton Roads.
