Intersections: Identity & Place


A collection of 105 titles with electronic ILL rights, unlimited access, and no DRM restrictions.

Course Readings Exploring the Intersection of Identity and Place

As AI-generated content becomes more prevalent in today’s world,
real human stories will only become more and more valuable.

Our books can’t be written by AI. They are the unique lived
experiences of real people. A human-to-human connection.

Lived Places Publishing. 100% human.
