It's hard to believe the semester has come to a close already. Finals are difficult for our students, and we understand that. At the end of every semester, we ramp up our efforts to make the library as welcoming as possible so that students can do their best work. Along with some perennial favorites, such as the therapy dogs and coffee, we tried some new things this time around, such as our VIP Study Room contest. As you can see from the numbers, we reached a tremendous amount of people this December!
The library staff send our best wishes for a peaceful and restful winter break. We look forward to working with you in 2016.
