About Cañada College Library
Welcome to our collection of immigration stories told by members of the Cañada College community. The purpose of this project is to share, preserve, and give voice to immigrant stories from Cañada. Through this project, the Library/Learning Center would like to build upon and contribute to the ongoing conversation around immigration, capturing the complexity of the immigration process. In addition, we hope to celebrate the amazing journeys of our students, professors, staff and friends.
Enjoy!
The producers of this project, Rebecca Alcala, Mike Ferrari, and Dave Patterson would like to thank all of the participants and Cañada College for making this possible.
Cañada College, located halfway between San Francisco and San Jose, is in Redwood City, California. Come visit us soon!
