Innovation Through Co-operation
LIBER, the principal association of research libraries in Europe, was founded in 1971, under the auspices of the Council of Europe.

This history, covering the years from 1971 to 2009, documents a unique period in European history. The contin...

The Arsenal of Exclusion & Inclusion
With contributions from over fifty architects, planners, geographers, historians, and journalists, The Arsenal offers a wide-ranging view of the forces that shape our cities. Who gets to be where?

All Eyes are Upon Us

However, as historian Jason Sokol reveals in All Eyes Are Upon Us, these achievements obscured the harsh reality of a region riven by segregation and deep-seated racism. White fans from across Brooklyn -- Irish, Jewish, and Italian -- came out to support Jackie Robinson when he broke baseball's color barrier with the Dodgers in 1947, even as the city...
