三八女神节特展： 《她，从未缺席》
女性的经验与故事在塑造社会方面发挥着重要作用。性别史学家贺萧 （Gail Hershatter）指出，女性是社会与国家发展的积极参与者，而非被动的历史人物。
近年来，性别史学者与研究者致力于恢复女性在历史叙事中的姓名、经验与贡献，例如重新强调“居里夫人”原名玛丽亚·斯克沃多夫斯卡，以及研究科拉松·阿基诺与旺阿兹莎等女性领袖的政治经验。
在当代社会，女性的生活与国家发展、社会变迁及公共议题密切相关。然而，女性在劳动、照护及健康方面的贡献常常在社会制度与政策中被忽视。
在马来西亚，政府设立了妇女、家庭与社会发展部（KPWKM），以推动女性发展，加强女性权益、机会，以及其在国家建设中的参与。
本次展览精选馆藏中与女性文学、历史、社会、政治和医学相关的书籍。透过多元视角与女性故事，展览邀请观众重新思考女性在塑造社会中的重要意义。
展览日期：2026年3月9日~ 2026年3月27日

Women's Day Special Exhibition：She Has Never Been Absent
Women’s experiences and stories play an essential role in shaping society. Gender historian Gail Hershatter emphasises that women are active participants in social and national development, rather than passive figures in history.
In recent years, gender historians and researchers have worked to restore women’s names, experiences, and contributions in historical narratives—for example, by foregrounding the original name of “Madame Curie”, Maria Skłodowska, and reassessing the leadership of figures such as Corazon Aquino and Wan Azizah binti Wan Ismail.
In contemporary society, women’s lives are closely connected to national development, social transformation, and public issues. However, contributions related to women’s labour, caregiving responsibilities, and health are often overlooked within social systems and policies.
In Malaysia, this commitment to women’s development is reflected through the establishment of the Ministry of Women, Family and Community Development (KPWKM), which strengthens women’s rights, opportunities, and participation in national progress.
This exhibition showcases selected titles from the Library’s collection on women in literature, history, society, politics, and medicine. Through diverse perspectives and women’s stories, it invites visitors to reflect on the significance of women’s contributions in shaping society.
