Austin Community College Library Services

We are excited to welcome you!😎

A Happy Howdy to y'all from the circulation desk! As finals week wraps up, don't forget that we are here to help you finish strong! 🤓🎓🧑‍🎓🥇💯🏆🦇 💜

Last Friday our ACC EGN Book Club met up and had our first ever BYOB: Bring Your Own Book. We all brought in and talked about some of our favorite books and/or books that we've been reading recently, and even had a mini book exchange. Our next meeting will cover "Americanah" by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie and will be held on June 5th at 2pm in room 1107. Book club is open to all staff, faculty and students, so feel free to drop in and join the discussion (even if you haven't read the book and just want to gab)!

The ACC Cypress Creek library in collaboration with the Physics, Astronomy, and Engineering Department Stepped Out of the Ordinary and Stepped Into the Sun! ☀️

Ever wondered what it feels like to be at the very heart of our life-giving star? The Sun program immersed students and staff into the Sun’s blazing energy and explored its power in a hands-on experience. They created suncatchers, solar bead bracelets, an ode to the Sun and took a walk through our solar system. They witnessed demonstrations with canned heat and a solar oven. And marveled at the rainbow effects of a dispersed prism, peered through a telescope to spot sunspots, and stepped into our Sun immersion room and felt the Sun’s environment.

Stop by the Rio Grande Campus library and learn something new about the Earth from our Earth Month Display! We've been making eco-friendly choices by trying out junk journaling...how have you been practicing sustainability this month? 🌎🌿🌳🌱💚

The Rio Grande Campus library has gone all out this National Poetry Month! 📖✍💖

As the month finishes up, be sure to come by and grab a Poem for Your Pocket or make some Magnetic Poetry! We also have Black Out Poetry Take and Make bags ready to go, and students have loved hanging their black out poems on the "Poe-tree." Stop in to see our poe-tree and, while you're there, check out our diverse poetry collection!
