It is impossible to tell the story of America without telling the story of immigrants. The Robert Crown Library and the Stanford Advocates for Immigrants' Rights invite you to explore the immigrant experience through a collection of fiction and non-fiction titles. The books listed on this site are only a sampling of the Stanford Libraries' collection. If you would like additional reading recommendations, please reach out to reference@law.stanford.edu.
You are able to check out any book listed on this site! Loan periods and request processing time may vary depending on which campus library the book comes from. But regardless of whether a book is at Green, Law, or any of the other campus libraries, you can request the book through SearchWorks and make an appointment to pick it up in front of the Crown building. Or, if you are unable to pick up material in person or would like to review a section of a publication for longer than the check out period, please request a scan of the section you are interested in. Keep in mind that scan requests are subject to copyright.
Stanford Advocates for Immigrants’ Rights is a student group dedicated to promoting and defending the interests of all immigrants living in the United States. We are committed to serving the immigrant community by encouraging greater student involvement in immigrant issues, whether it be through school-wide and community education, direct legal services, collaboration with advocacy organizations, or political mobilization. In pursuing this mission, we hope to raise awareness about the injustices faced by immigrants nationwide and build a coalition of support.
