Several libraries have organized thematic activities focusing on sexual and gender diversity:

This year we celebrate the Beneyto year.
María Beneyto is one of the most important writers of contemporary Valencian literature. Although she began to achieve notable success writing in Castilian, in the 1950s she was encouraged to write in Valencian, but her work in this language remained unpublished until the 1990s, when she became known thanks to the vindication of her figure.
Her education, which straddled two cultures, between the Spanish she learned in Madrid and her native Valencian, explains María Beneyto's literary bilingualism.
In addition to the various literary awards she has won, she was awarded the Valencian Letters Prize by the Generalitat Valenciana (1992), the International Working Women's Prize by the Valencian Parliament (2000), the Isabel de Villena Prize (2008) and the Luis Guarner Prize (2009).
In 2025 she was named Writer of the Year 2025 by the Acadèmia Valenciana de la Llengua. The UV dedicates:
- An exhibition at the Biblioteca Histórica that can be visited from 9 April.
- A small sample of his works in our library. Exhibition Area. Floor -1

Procomún: Open Educational Resources Network
In our Subject Guides we have this educational resource.
Procomún is a space for educational learning resources, mainly for the teaching community and students, but also for the general public. Everyone will be able to search, consult and download learning objects in different formats, as well as multimedia elements.
One of the latest innovations integrated in Procomún is the eXeLearning online tool, which allows the authors of a resource created with this tool to edit the contents of the resource directly on the platform.
