Initiated in 1994 by former faculty member and alumna Margaret Kocevar ’90 (1969-1996), the Tolerance Resource Center is designed to provide students, faculty, scholars and members of the greater community with the opportunity to understand and appreciate issues of racial, cultural and religious diversity in the world around them.

Ms. Kocevar, with the assistance of Sister Mary Louise Trivison, SND, professor of theology, envisioned a center that would become a local and regional headquarters for research, outreach and education on the Holocaust, anti-bias issues and diversity. In addition, researchers, authors, historians and interested individuals can obtain information through the use of technology, including a computer with access to the Internet and various online services, and videos, visual arts and documentaries. A videocassette recorder and monitor are also available for viewing purposes.

The Center houses a variety of books, educational curriculum guides, periodicals, multimedia resources, maps, posters and photographs. The Kocevar family has been generous in contributing Ms. Kocevar’s collection of material and research related to the Holocaust.

Most materials may only be used within the Center. Some materials may be checked out. Please check with a librarian to become a guest patron of the library.
