Taken from womenshistorymonth.gov:

Women's History Month had its origins as a national celebration in 1981 when Congress passed Pub. L. 97-28 which authorized and requested the President to proclaim the week beginning March 7, 1982 as “Women’s History Week.” Throughout the next five years, Congress continued to pass joint resolutions designating a week in March as “Women’s History Week.” In 1987 after being petitioned by the National Women’s History Project, Congress passed Pub. L. 100-9 which designated the month of March 1987 as “Women’s History Month.” Between 1988 and 1994, Congress passed additional resolutions requesting and authorizing the President to proclaim March of each year as Women’s History Month. Since 1995, presidents have issued a series of annual proclamations designating the month of March as “Women’s History Month.” These proclamations celebrate the contributions women have made to the United States and recognize the specific achievements women have made over the course of American history in a variety of fields.

Things to remember:

1. If you have an unscheduled period, you are welcome to use the library. We just ask that you sign in and show us your ID on 5-Star that proves you aren't skipping class.

2. If you choose to use the library at lunch, you will need to have your ID scanned upon entry. Please make sure to have your actual ID card (or the barcode in 5-Star) to enter. Make sure you have finished eating your lunch before you come in.

3. We have textbooks for you to use to study. We need collateral from you (an ID, phone, car keys, something you won't leave school without) in exchange for the book. You'll get it back when you get the book back.
