Books about Sigma Gamma Rho

[Diamond97]

Hi Ladies of Sigma Gamma Rho

I’ve being doing my homework by reading the Divine Nine, In Search of Sisterhood, BGLOs in the 21st Century: Our Fight has Just Begun and African American Fraternities and Sororities: The Legacy and The Vision. These books were very informative, however I would like to read a book that is dedicated to Sigma Gamma Rho, which will give me a greater understand of the organization. During my research I came across this title “Behind These Doors A Legacy: The History of Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority”, however I can not locate this book. How can I obtain a copy of this book? Or can you recommend any other books that are dedicated to Sigma Gamma Rho? Thank you in advance for any information you can offer.

I'm not an SGRho, but since I'm awake.... Diamond97, sometimes there are books that are in limited release for a reason. If you can't find it in a commercial bookstore, borrow it from a friend, or find it on www.abebooks.com, it's probably not meant to be read by the public.

As a side note, if you're in the DC area, the author of the most recent AKA history book will be doing a public signing during their centennial.

Also try WorldCat. This will show you what libraries near you have a copy. good luck!

I just love how she said: Ladies of Sigma Gamma Rho.

There are 2 books - part 1 and part 2. I found some of it at a local library when I was doing my research. Diamond97, sending you a PM.

^^^ I also like how she already read all the other major books BEFORE she posed her question!

Hi Ladies,

Thank you for your help. I followed up on the information that was given to me and I came across an auction on EBay for the books. Volume 2 is being sold for $225 and Volume 1 is being sold for around $275. I wanted to know if these are the true values of the books & what is your opinion on the cost? I tried my local library and they do not carry a copy of either book, matter of fact no library in my state has a copy of the books. Thanking you in advance.

I have answered your questions to the best of my knowledge via PM as only a member of Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority could.
