This week over 500 visitors to the Reynolds Libraries got to catch a glimpse into what Reynolds students really get to think about in class!
That’s because the Reynolds Student Expo was on display showcasing 188 student projects from 24 courses & 338 students.
Click here to see what they are really thinking about!
To help students prepare for final exams, Reynolds Libraries will extend its hours of operation during the last weeks of fall semester at the Parham and Downtown campuses.

For finals, while supplies last, Parham Library is offering free tea and hot chocolate to students, faculty and staff to show our support!

At the library, we are no stranger to the fact that finals are a stressful time for everyone. Next week, students will be able to relax to the music of our very own Jackson Wright right in the library! (Jackson is not only a library tech specialist, he is also the bassist of the band Wylder. Check them out on Spotify!)
Join us at noon at the Parham Road Campus library on Monday December 10th and Tuesday December 11th for this limited engagement.
Recently the Chronicle of Higher Education asked scholars what they thought was the most influential book from the past 20 years….
Find their answers in “The New Canon” and get an intellectually stimulating boost for your holiday reading list.
Enjoy the break!
Have yourself a merry little moment. Stop by Parham Library’s new MakerSpace table to create a few customized gift tags or snip a snowflake. The crafty tag above is KC Frankenburger’s art. Maudisa Blanken (left) and Meada Anderson get creative in the pictures below.
NPR recently reported on how Princeton admitted 13 transfer students this fall – the first time Princeton has done so in THREE DECADES!
Because of the success of those students, Princeton has decided to reinstate the transfer program by encouraging students from “low-income families, the military and from community colleges.”
Reynolds Librarians wanted to highlight some of the article’s findings and encourage you all to read it – and apply to Princeton!
You can find the article here: https://www.npr.org/2018/12/04/667381514/top-colleges-seeking-diversity-from-a-new-source-transfer-students
We are so proud of all of you!
