'Change the Subject' Screening + Panel Discussion

Princeton University Library presented two screenings of the documentary, “Change the Subject" for library staff. The film shares the story of a resilient group of Dartmouth students who are committed to promoting the rights of undocumented people. Dartmouth staff, librarians, and students partnered to produce a film that captured their journey to confront the use of biased catalog subject headings, such as “illegal alien.”The film details how their campus activism led them to be a part of the immigration debate on Capitol Hill.

Panel discussions followed both of the screenings.
