Center for Cultural Resources

The Center for Cultural Resources (CCR) is a collection of resource kits, each organized to teach a core of 12 universal themes on unity and diversity. The kits provide instructional resources and lesson plans designed for thematic, interactive and realistic learning. They are available after attending an orientation. After completing a reservation form, the user receives confirmation from the CCR intern regarding kit title and check-out period. Kits may only be checked out after submitting a reservation form (online or in person) and receiving confirmation from the CCR intern.

The CCR is located in the Indiana University Southeast Library.
