You are HuntingDONE! Congratulations, Graduates. We look forward to hearing how you use the wisdom you've gained these past few years to serve your communities.

If you're still within driving distance of campus, remember that we are still a resource for you--you can check out our physical materials as an alum. Don't be a stranger! You will always be a part of the Huntingdon College Community.

On Wednesday, the Queen of England presented the New York Public Library with a bespoke replica of Roo, the smallest companion of the Bear of Very Little Brain.

Final answer to start off your finals week.

While Prof. Kidwell was in graduate school at Vanderbilt, there were still concerns over the theft of expensive reference books that resulted in one particular reference book being chained to the main desk of -- ironically -- the "Divinity" library.

Historical knowledge like this makes me very grateful to be in this time when books are more available for the general populace and knowledge is right in our grasp, even when the overabundance of information can make things confusing at times. But that's what Huntingdon's Library is for, isn't it? To give you access to the resources you need, so you can enter to grow in wisdom and go forth to apply that wisdom in service. Hawk 'em!

And last, but certainly not least, we have the recently finished read of one of our night supervisors, Lee Gaines! This book is a testament to our willingness and ability to put books YOU want to see on our shelves. He requested it as an Interlibrary Loan and we ended up purchasing it!

If you see something missing on our shelves you think we should have, let us know! We will consider all requests.

Barbara Gordon has some serious time management skills... serving the public running a public library AND serving vigilante justice? Perhaps she's really good at time blocking or Pomodoro.

Any guesses on our trivia question for today?

CS Lewis books have a beautiful depth to them, rereading sounds like a wonderful thing for the summer. Great pick, Mr. Kidwell!

If you're interested in reading any of our books over the summer and are returning in the spring, make sure to let us know at the circulation desk.

Irma Pince is decidedly not the sort of Librarian we aspire to be. Open stacks, no restricted sections, and only some shushing when folks forget that they aren't in their dorm room.

Any guesses of the superhero who is a librarian?

It's a "Great Big Beautiful" Mystery until you dive deeper into the book, Ms. Dotson!
