The Lollipops are Out!


We’ve all been studying very hard and doing a lot of work as the semester wraps up. Late night hours and lack of sleep can be very stressful, so why not enjoy a nice lollipop as you do your work?  Our trusty librarian friends have supplied the students with lollipops at the reference desk for finals week. As you study all week, feel free to grab one!

Also, note the bookmarks advertising the library’s first annual Library Research Prize–a new program where you could win $500 for the research you are already doing for your classes. Click on the link for details on how to enter.

And remember, we’re open until 2 am tonight, tomorrow, Wednesday and Thursday this week. Happy studying!
