National Library Outreach Day 4/6/22
Today is National Library Outreach Day!
Q: How do Academic Libraries provide outreach?
A: One important way is to provide resources to our users where they are, which is not always in the library building. We strive to provide quality online resources so our users can do their research from home, their dorm, in another country while on an exchange program, late at night while the library building is closed but our online resources stay available 24/7, and the list goes on.
Our library is here to meet your information needs.

National Library Week – Molly Shannon
Molly Shannon is celebrating National Library Week as Honorary Chair and has this to say about the importance of Libraries, “Libraries are places where communities connect – to things like broadband, computers, programs and classes, books, movies, video games and more. But most importantly libraries connect us to each other.”

Fun Distraction: Stikbots
Remember Stikbots? They first hit stores in 2015 and are now starring in many silly movies on the “Stikbot Central” YouTube channel. One of our favorites is “The Ancient Tomb of Stikbot” where Harve, Jessy, and Sharps find a mysterious map to an ancient tomb and embark on an exhilarating adventure. There is even a “Stikbot Studio 2” app so you can create your own stop animation movies whether you have Stikbots or want to use other action figures. Check all these out here …
