Exhibit: Beyond Rosie: Women in World War II

Rosie the Riveter has become the symbol of women's involvements in World War II. She only tells a small part, however, of the larger stories about the ways women contributed to and were affected by war. World War II changed the everyday social, cultural and economic realities of life in the United States - especially for women. This exhibit explores the stories of these women in their complexities and honors women in World War II.

This exhibit is available for viewing during the library's regular operating hours and is on loan from the Kennesaw State University's Museum of History and Holocaust Education.
