Resources for staff @ Stanford

With so much going on in and around campus, this space will feature QUEST-centered activities as well as those that enrich our lives on and off campus.

LBGTQ folks are a part of every group, here's a list of currently active Stanford Staff groups you can partner with to make Stanford a more inclusive space for staff.

This page has a wealth of great recordings from awesome speakers covering timely topics from different spaces and places - from cybersecurity to imposter-syndrome, this series will teach you something new.

This collection of 140 books, 64 of which have been made available online through Stanford Libraries, were purchased from Marcus Books in Oakland. This collection consists of both fiction and nonfiction works by and for Black people, Indigenous people, and people of color (BIPOC). This is a phenomenal resource.


Log-in is required. A sobering and important data resource on the diversity here at Stanford. The dashboard is a step in the right direction for transparency, and key to all of us supporting increased diversity, equity and inclusion at Stanford.
