We are excited to celebrate Pride Week in partnership with the NLQRI and Trans Support NL. Please join us this Friday!

Make Trans History With Us!

Ever wanted to try your hand at zine-making? Join Trans Support NL and the NL Q***r Research Initiative at the MUN Education Library to create something together.

We're making a trans history zine, celebrating those who came before us, and the everyday trans people making history now, just by being themselves.

This will also be a great opportunity to learn more about trans history in NL and beyond as Rhea Rollmann will be speaking at the event!

No skills required. All materials provided. Just bring your creativity!

Children's literature is best enjoyed read aloud. These were some of the favourite books chosen by students in ED 3322, rural cohort.

Courtney Crocker, Education Librarian, couldn't resist sharing her favourite new book by Librarian Mychal Threets I'm So Happy You're Here!

📚The new Rural Cohort class of ED 3322 - Children's Literature in the Primary/ Elementary School - welcomed talented local author Xavier Michael Campbell. Our Librarian, Courtney Crocker, is teaching this course during Intercession. She invited Xavier to share his book with the class. He lead an engaging read aloud of his beautiful new children's book, A Single Dreadlock. It was a real treat for these new teachers.

You can find this book and many others at the Education Library as part of our Children's Literature Collection to support pre-service Teachers.

Faculty, Staff and Students are also welcome to share these great picture books with their families.

Liza-Ann is away enjoying APLA - Atlantic Provinces Library Association annual conference in Dartmouth. A huge highlight was a session on Collaboration across generations with very different priority and lense. Past Dean of Libraries Sue Cleyle presented with her daughter Thea who is now in Library School. Such a great conversation. Much love to CUPE and Mun Libraries for supporting this opportunity.

Our students are doing some fundraising today :-)
