Blind date with a bookExport this event to calendar

Monday, February 13, 2017 (all day) to Friday, February 17, 2017 (all day)

Valentine’s Day is approaching and once again the Library is playing matchmaker!  ‘Blind date with a book’ is happening February 13-17 at Dana Porter, Davis Centre, Musagetes and St. Jerome’s libraries.

What is a blind date with a book? Books wrapped in paper come with a ‘personal ad’ containing some clues about what’s inside.  Without knowing what the book looks like, the title or the author, signing out a book is like going on a blind date.  You never know what you might get…it could be your favourite read of the year!

Love it or hate it, return the enclosed book review to be entered into our prize draw - and grab one of our new Library Love buttons while you’re at it!

Blind date with a book is the term project of one of our Library Ambassadors, Caroline Kayko, in partnership with the UW English Student Society.
