May is Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, and we invite you to explore the books below—not just this month, but all year long. These works highlight the diversity of Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander communities in the U.S., celebrating their histories, cultures, and contributions across many fields.

While no reading list can fully encapsulate the stories, experiences, and history of these communities, we believe that books can open hearts, broaden perspectives, and foster deeper understanding.
