Excerpt:
Nearly fifty Michigan libraries and its state humanities council are receiving a collection of books, films and other resources about Muslims in the United States and around the world.
The Muslim Journeys Bookshelf collection was developed by the National Endowment for the Humanities and American Library Association. Each library will receive 25 books, three films and a year of access to Oxford Islamic Studies Online.
Officials say the program aims to introduce the broader U.S. public to the "complex history and culture of Muslims" through "trustworthy and accessible resources."
