More photos of the library and campus going red for United Way.  "I noticed Porcellino was looking decidedly glum and left out so I put some red on him and [took a] shot of him giving me “the look”, " writes Laurie Strome.

And, finally, no red in this photo. "I keep getting pleasantly surprised by how well the students are respecting the noise zoning in the library. The group study floors are so full of dynamic energy and the quiet and silent floors are carefully respected. I especially enjoy the colours and the new furniture on the 6th floor and it seems the students do as well!" writes Karen Davidson.

Red-themed photos from the past. "John Hofstetter helped find some love-themed titles and our co-op student, Marissa White, made the heart garland from the pages of some great love stories. In the spirit of architecture, building the heart was certainly a structural challenge!" Submitted by Sara Perkins and first posted in Library Lens on February 14, 2014.
