Not all heroes wear capes… Some carry deadlines, coffee, and a whole lot of creativity. ☕🎨💼

Last May 1, we celebrated Labor Day — a tribute to the hardworking individuals who keep every industry moving, including those thriving in creative spaces.

So, whether you’re designing, brainstorming, creating, or simply surviving group work season, here are some recommended reads that highlight the value of workers in creative environments:

📚 Creating the Productive Workplace: Places to Work Creatively by Derek Clements-Croome (2018)

📚 Surviving the Creative Space: Teamwork Techniques for Designers by Sherry Freyermuth (2022)

📚 Contemporary Artists Working Outside the City: Creative Retreat by Sarah Lowndes (2018)

🔗 Don’t forget to log in using your UP mail to access the full content.

Because behind every masterpiece is a worker trying their best not to say, “I’ll just cram this later.” 😉

Happy reading, everyone!

📣LIBRARY SERVICE ADVISORY📣

To make way for Talent Determination Test preparation, we will be closed on May 7-8. We still have online services here on FB or through our email, [email protected]. Please schedule your transactions accordingly.
