On Display: Food Security


Currently on display in the East Lobby display cases is a collection of library materials relating to the topic of Food Security.  With the college's efforts to expand research on food security with the development of a Food Security Triad, approximately 60 books, DVDs, and pamphlets have been selected to be displayed for the month of February.


The World Bank describes food security as the access all people have to sufficient food for an active and healthy lifestyle.  Therefore, food security is a wide-ranging, multidisciplinary topic that encompasses areas such as: food supply, food safety, agricultural productivity, sustainable agriculture, global and domestic economics, food sovereignty, environmental policy, water resources & development, hunger, natural resources, economic policy, globalization, and transportation.


All materials are available to checkout.  Please see a library staff member at the Circulation Desk if you wish to borrow an item.
