Library Lens - Week 42

Another busy week in library land and staff members have kept a sharp eye open for interesting subjects to share.

"[Tuesday] at Musagetes we were visited by a violin-playing goat who kicked off a thesis defense we hosted in our reading corner," writes Sara Perkins.  Submitted by Sara.

Still on the subject of the thesis defense, Sara Perkins notes "It was quite crowded, and some students found very creative ways of getting a good view." Take a careful look at the photo above to see just how creative. Submitted by Sara.

Eva Dodsworth writes, "I was sitting in my third floor office and something through the window caught my eye. Normally it’s a bird or a squirrel, but I have never seen this before! I observed a bit longer to see that she safely made it down!" Submitted by Eva.

Lynda Johnson's retirement celebration took place Thursday in the Porter staff lounge. The tasty treats included this delicious raspberry cake! Photos submitted by Leah Haisoch.

While in Sarasota, Florida last week, Anne Fullerton spied this "Library sculpture  – “pages” of 3 open books written in English, Chinese and Arabic." Submitted by Anne.

Janet Bender reports, "We have our own not so short Cataloguing Gnome.  Ashley Cooper did a great job putting together her costume this Halloween." Submitted by Janet.

Who remembers this event from two years ago?   "...the Midnight Re-Caller was caught re-offending and once more sentenced to Jail-a-Thon for the United Way," wrote Laurie Strome at the time. Submitted by Laurie.
