Readings - Books

Biko, S. (1978). I write what I like: A selection of his writings. Harper & Row.

(This book is going to be held in the Alvin Sherman Library's "reserve" collection (ask at the 1st floor circulation desk). This access allows for 1-day checkouts to scan or photocopy needed pages. For local students this means coming to the library for this task. The scanner is on the 2nd floor and is free. There are photocopiers on several floors and each copy is 10 cents, payable via your print funds connected to your SharkCard. For distance students this means they will place an ILLiad document delivery request for the pages of the book chapters needed.)
