Join us for a book club discussion on October 22nd at 4 pm in HamiltonONE. We provide the book. Check out your copy at the library's front desk.

We're reading An American Sunrise by Joy Harjo, a collection of poems that ask who tells the American story and whose story gets remembered. A great conversation extension from Jon Meacham's visit!

All are welcome. Refreshments will be served.

Answer: 2 hours (may vary)

Did your professor assign the use of a course reserve?

Here's how it works:
What: Instructional materials (study materials, course readings, learning manipulatives, video) your professor sets aside for use in the library
Where: Circulation desk (front desk)
What you need: Your FC ID, your instructor's name, and the course number
Why: Course Reserves enable you to get your hands on the materials you need for class, instead of hoping that one copy is still on the shelf.
