The York University Black Staff Network offers our membership the opportunity to connect and engage with other Black identifying non-academic colleagues across our campuses to help enhance their professional networks, receive peer support and community, all while receiving the benefits of learning programming and skills development opportunities through lunch & learn sessions and our Annual Membership Breakfast and Annual General Meeting.

YUBSN Book Club

Our book club is intended to bring our community together to learn about and discuss topics and subjects that matter to us.  We do this through our love of reading.   

While there are many great authors of every background, we seek to recognize, celebrate, and amplify the voices of Black writers. We recognize the powerful words of Black authors who have provided insight into both the struggles and triumphs of their community, through the power of words and literary imagery.
