Murdoch Library Celebrates the 60th Anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights

To commemorate the 60th Anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, Murdoch University, together with Amnesty International Australia is hosting a display. 

Beginning on Monday the 3rd of November at Murdoch Campus Library, the display will showcase significant books from the library collection that reflect the far reaching nature of the Declaration. As you enter the library take a moment to see the Declaration, read an article, and view the art works which are part of the Murdoch Art Collection.

On display you will see the 60 items from the Murdoch University library, a small fraction of our collection that addresses human rights issues. 

Suggestions were invited from members of the university community. 

The Display is located within the Murdoch Campus Library, just inside the main entrance to the library. 

The anniversary of the Declaration is the 10th of December.
