Libraries are for Everyone!
Friday, 3/21/2025 - Thursday, 5/1/2025
Libraries are for everyone! A place where all are welcome to study, seek knowledge, and better themselves. To this end, we have set up a display to celebrate the power of libraries as a place where people can come together, explore ideas, debate, and foster community.
Stop by and check it out! And because, libraries are for everyone, we have made this display interactive. Feel free to contribute to the display by recommending books/resources that have either uplifted or provided meaning to you. Book stands and post-it notes are available in the library along with librarians that can help you find titles and resources.
Free Discarded Books!!!
Wednesday, 4/16/2025 - Thursday, 5/15/2025
As you know, you can check out all the circulating books of the library for free. However, did you know that we also give some books (and magazines) out for free that can be yours forever?
These are books on our newly created discard shelf located by the library discussion board and the West Circulation desk at the Main campus library.
What are discarded books and why are you giving them away?
Great question! Due to limited shelf space, for every new book we purchase to put on our shelves, we have to take another off. As well, accreditation standards in certain disciplines (such as Nursing) only allow us to carry books of a certain age in some areas. Therefore, these books have to go somewhere, why not your personal library?
All that said, stop by the newly created discard shelf, see what we got, and pick up any books that interest you!!!
