Intersections: Identity & Place

Course Readings from Lived Places Publishing

The library is central to supporting course design and content selection. Faculty are increasingly asking libraries to acquire and provide materials from a broader, more diverse range of authors and subject areas to augment their courses and meet the needs of their students.

Lived Places Publishing (LPP) exists to support librarians and faculty in this goal. Each title we publish explores the intersection of identity and place, humanizing an issue through lived experience(s).

Intersections: Identity & Place is a collection of 105 titles that serve as concise course readings (100-150 pages) across a variety of subjects and themes. Here’s a sampling of the titles in the collection. See below for downloadable version (.xls) of the complete title list.

This Collection includes 40 brand new titles for 2025, with many more in development across 20 topic areas.

The rapid adoption of the Intersections Collection by institutions both large and small showcases how these narrative works provide value within the classroom and increase the visibility of marginalized voices. Each of our collections are delivered with libraries in mind:

DRM-free, unlimited user access, and unrestricted PDF download of titles
Whole ebook interlibrary loan to one partner institution at a time
Affordable, perpetual access pricing with region-appropriate discounts to ensure every university across the globe can own the Intersections Collection
5% of all sales are set aside to fund open access publishing based on our average production cost (published publicly on our website, updated every 6 months)

See complete information about all of the above here in our Librarian Resource Center, including MARC & KBART records.
