Yes, I know. January is over. And yet, there were no blog posts. (Sigh) What can I say? Life happened and then there were...exams! (Not much happens in the library when exams begin except for, well, exams. Lots and lots of exams.
Now it's the beautiful month of February and we keep having unseasonably warm weather and we've moved onto a new semester! So what's happening now? Well...
1. Captain Corinth has returned from his adventures in England and Ireland! (Who is Captain Corinth? Good question! And one you will need to know for the Twitter Scavenger Hunt in March to get the bonus entry for the gift card!) Keep your eyes open in the library for a small Pirate and you might find him!)
2. Library Science classes have started again, with a new round of both Library Science I and II students. Censorship is a hot topic with the legislature recently making the rounds in the state of Virginia.
3. Biscuits and Books #2 is right around the corner! This great opportunity will show off the database links in Destiny Discover and how to use them in your teaching and research. SEVENTY-SIX resources all in one place with a free Bojangles biscuit. Sign up!
4. The Spring Reading Marathon is April 3-7. Read 4 of the 5 days during SMART lunch and you will be entered into the gift card drawings. Winners have the choice of Starbucks, iTunes and Sheetz gift cards.
5. The warm-up to the Reading Marathon is our Twitter Scavanger Hunt. Stay tuned for the details, but our hashtag will be #Agree2Read. Everyone who finishes the hunt is in the drawing, but anyone who gets a picture with Captain Corinth gets their name in twice! (He is a such a publicity ham!)
Happy February Everyone!
I'll participate in the reading marathon......That is my spring break! I have several pics with Captain Corinth! Am I eligible? Ha HA!
