On community colleges...

Grant McCracken quotes on his blog, Cultureby.com:

Perhaps as a reply to the TV show that now holds the community college up to ridicule, Kay Ryan, the US poet laureate, has this to say:
“I simply want to celebrate the fact that right near your home, year in and year out, a community college is quietly—and with very little financial encouragement—saving lives and minds,” said Ryan. “I can’t think of a more efficient, hopeful or egalitarian machine, with the possible exception of the bicycle.”

Reading that really made me smile...

New Friday Hours!

Starting this semester, the library will now be open until 4:30 on Fridays! If you have a Friday class, this could be the perfect time for you to stop by the library, curl up in a cozy chair, and get some serious studying done. We librarians will be at the reference desk, ready to answer your questions and assist you with your work. We look forward to seeing you!

additional databases

Perhaps you're unaware that we have access to many more electronic databases than initially appear in our on campus listing. If you go to "additional databases" you'll see many more including the awesome Biography Resource Center. Remember the hyperlinks in this posting are designed for on campus access. Unfortunately, the "additional databases" do not appear in myCommnet for off campus access to the databases. You may want to try www.iconn.org to see if they are available.
