"Another Christmas has come and gone and I didn't get a single pair of socks.

People will insist on getting me books."



 ~Dumbledore, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone

What is wrong with receiving books instead of socks as gifts? As far as we're concerned, absolutely nothing, and the more, the better! 

If you feel the same, please visit the Media Center this month. We have many holiday-themed books to enjoy as a break between studying for final exams. You can also celebrate the December birthdays of many of our favorite authors, like  Jane Austin, Nicholas Sparks, and Cornelia Funke, by checking out their novels.


As we move toward putting the semester and 2024 in our rearview mirrors, we're slowing things down a bit in the Media Center. If you need some quiet time from the stress of final college applications, semester projects, mid-term and final exams or the holiday hubbub, we have many quiet activities and therapy dog visits to help you through the next few weeks.


However you spend your well-deserved winter break, we wish you happy holidays and look forward to seeing you in 2025!
