Happenings

Honoring Our Seniors
To honor graduating seniors who have worked as a student library assistant or associate, the library selects a book, dedicates it to the graduating senior, and adds it to our collection.  To peruse this year's books and honorees, check out the display on the Reference Desk.

Library Finals Week Support
Find therapy animals (check our Hours page for the schedule), procrastination station activities, and love offerings in the form of K-cups and study snacks in the library beginning Reading Day (May 4).

Library Finals Week Hours
The library will be open until 12 midnight beginning Reading Day. Find all the details on our Hours page. Always remember that if you are uncomfortable walking home alone in the evening hours, our trusty P-Safe officers are happy to see you home.

Centering with Labyrinths
