DecorativeAbout the Project

Celebrate diversity through food by exploring global recipes in the library databases.  Learn how to access the recipes, watch staff cooking demos, and share your experiences with the St. Petersburg College community! 

The Diversity and Databases project is a collaboration between Learning Resources and Student Life to encourage the SPC community to become familiar with online library resources while also exploring other cultures. The recipes are accessible through the Global Road Warrior database, which is provided to all SPC students and staff. Each recipe is hand-picked by a staff member and documented in a short cooking demo to celebrate the diversity of both the featured country, as well as the members of our community.

Staff and students are encouraged to try the recipes and share their experiences through our interactive world map. Check back each semester for new recipes and a chance to win prizes!
