Christopher Newport University Trible Library

As our 2026 grads prepare to walk the stage tomorrow, we wanted to wrap up the semester with one last ! We're going back forty-four years to the 1982 graduation. This graduation was held on the lawn in front of Gosnold Hall (located behind what is Forbes today), and the speaker was Frank X. Forker, the executive director of a management firm in Massachusetts.

The Trible Library's summer hours go into effect this Wednesday, May 6.

Good luck to everyone on the rest of your finals, and see you in August!

We couldn’t wrap up National Library Week without a special library-themed ! Today, we’re taking a trip down memory lane. We’re going back to 1987, before the Trible Library, when we had the Captain John Smith Library!

National Library Week + Earth Day= the perfect excuse to share more books!

Happy National Library Week from the Trible Library!
