Hours & Upcoming Closure
at Murray State University Libraries
Wrap It Up
We are wrapping up a busy spring semester. This week Waterfield has been absolutely packed with students working on projects and preparing for finals. The finish line is close. We can do this. From all of us at University Libraries, good luck and enjoy what summer has in store for you!
Some Recent Event Highlights
Posters-at-the-Capitol and Scholars Week were both well-attended and well-received, with record participation in Scholars Week. Great news!
We hosted hosted another Spring Games Week, including board games, video games, Bananagrams, a chess meet-up, and, last but not least, a trivia night.
We held our Book Sale, the proceeds of which goes directly towards purchasing new materials for the Libraries. We raised almost $500!
We are in the midst of De-Stress Week, which occurs at the end of every semester and aims to provide students, faculty, and staff opportunities to take little breaks from end-of-semester stress.
Thanks to Collection Development Librarian Stephanie Leedy securing a QEP mini-grant, we were able to host two wellness-related programs: a financial literacy lunch and learn with Murray Bank's Allison Stevens, and a chair yoga session led by Gayle Rogers. A portion of the mini-grant will go toward wellness-focused library materials.
