Quiet Areas — Curious about all those new signs around the building? Or maybe you’ve been frustrated by trying to find a quiet corner in the library for your work. Well, we have an answer for that. At the start of the term, Hannon Library introduced designated Quiet and Community Areas. Learn more about them in this issue.

Featured Fiction — We love reading for education purposes, but we also know that sometimes you just want to curl up with a good novel. Fortunately, the library is making it easier to find quality fiction with our new Featured Fiction Section.

Upcoming Events — February is Love Your Library Month, and what better way to show your appreciation and support of the library than by checking out one of our upcoming events. For students, we have the Long Night Against Procrastination, which is the perfect opportunity to get ahead of those projects and final papers.
