SUMMARY:Behind Every Student: The Power of Family in Higher Education
DESCRIPTION:Families are central to the experiences of college students\, especially first-generation students of color. Despite their critical role in supporting student success\, parents\, grandparents\, siblings and more tend not to be a part of life on campus. This event focuses on families as partners in the education of their loved ones and explores how parent and family involvement\, family socialization\, and support from family members shape student experiences and outcomes. From understanding the role of Spanish-speaking parents in the lives of first-generation Latinx college students to the familial network that supports parent scholars of color to the place of parents and families in shaping graduate students of color over the life course\, this event offers rich\, in-depth descriptions and intimate accounts of the love and care of families in the educational paths of students. \nWe celebrate Dr. Nathan Durdella’s new book Shaping Students of Color from Pre-School to Graduate School with presentations by Durdella and CSUN ELPS Alumni\, Dr. Esther Ramirios and Dr. Juana Maria Valdivia\, about the parents’ role in student success. The event will be moderated by Dr. Miguel Ceja\, Educational Leadership and Policies Studies professor and department chair. This event is hybrid.  Please register for the online Zoom session or RSVP to attend in person. \nFor more information\, please visit the event page.

SUMMARY:Zine Making and Resistant Histories
DESCRIPTION:Make your voice heard—let your zine be seen!\nJoin the Library for this hands-on workshop that will explore how zine-making can be used to document\, share\, and uplift resistant (as opposed to dominant) histories. Participants will learn more about what resistant histories are and will begin creating their own zine. This workshop is part of CSUN Library’s celebration of Native American Heritage Month. \nRegister today and start brainstorming about the stories and lesser-known historical narratives that you care about and want to share with your community. Our librarian facilitators will guide you through shaping your ideas\, gathering information\, and designing your self-published zine. \nNo set theme? No problem—ALL zine ideas and creative expressions are welcome! \nCome\, connect\, and enjoy light snacks while you zine!\nThis event is part of the Library’s activities for Native American Heritage Month. Visit the Library’s Native American Heritage Month Book Display in the lobby for books and literature that celebrate and elevate indigenous voices. \nWhat is a Zine?\nA zine is a small handmade book or magazine that can be self-published and shared. People make zines for many different reasons: to spread the word about an event or political movement\, share information\, start community discussions\, or even to share art. Since the 1930s\, zines have sparked fandoms and been vital to punk and underground scenes\, feminist and queer movements\, and activist networks. They are a radical and countercultural means of self-expression and information-sharing that exist outside of mainstream publishing channels. \nZines are about DIY (do-it-yourself) creativity\, sharing ideas\, and building community. Zines can be printed in small batches on just a few pages and are often small enough to fit in a pocket. There are many styles of zines\, from folded paper to digitally published! All zines are meant to be shared\, copied and passed around. What kind of zine will you create?

SUMMARY:Open Access 2025: Share your Knowledge\, Retain your Rights - Start an OA Journal
DESCRIPTION:Who owns our knowledge? This year’s International Open Access Week invites us to reflect on how scholarship is created\, shared\, and controlled. At California State University\, Northridge\, faculty and students are taking an active role in shaping the future of scholarly publishing by launching their own Open Access journals. \nJoin us for a morning of conversation and presentations exploring how you can share your knowledge while retaining your rights. Our program will feature speakers from CSUN and the CSU who are leading journal publishing initiatives. We’ll highlight Open Journal Systems (OJS)\, the systemwide platform\, while also sharing other publishing models and approaches. Learn about the opportunities and challenges of starting a journal\, from protecting faculty rights and navigating platforms to considering how AI intersects with academic publishing. \nSpeakers will include CSUN faculty editors and representatives from the CSU system who will share their experiences with OJS\, campus presses\, and emerging models of Open Access publishing. Whether you are interested in starting a journal\, contributing as an editor\, or simply learning more about how Open Access empowers scholarship\, this event offers valuable insights and practical guidance. \nCoffee and light refreshments will be provided. All are welcome—students\, faculty\, staff\, and anyone interested in Open Access publishing. \nHybrid event: in the University Library Jack & Florence Ferman Presentation Room and on Zoom \nPlease Register on Event Page

SUMMARY:Affordable Learning Superheroes Save the Day and Your Budget
