<\/strong>After a long and thoughtful review process, which included consultation with colleagues and LMIS, we will not be renewing our Elsevier journal bundle this year. This will allow us to directly subscribe to the Elsevier journals most frequently utilized by our Puget Sound community as well as result in considerable cost savings. Please keep in mind we can always provide content through interlibrary loan and document delivery. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/strong>You will see some changes to our web site and to PRIMO. These changes were designed to enhance accessibility and streamline searching.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/strong>We are delighted to showcase over a decade of collecting unique artists\u2019 books, zines and broadsides that reflect social justice themes. The exhibit is on display in the library link area and outside A&SC through the end of the semester. On August 25 <\/sup>we will be hosting a zoom event with noted African American artist Alisa Banks who will discuss her book Wrongful<\/em> Termination<\/em> which is on display in the exhibit. This book addresses the impact of the CROWN Act and efforts to end race-based hair discrimination. On September 12, we are hosting a workshop in our Book Arts Studio with local printers Jessica Spring and Yoshi Nakagawa. They will discuss the collaborative process of designing the broadside for the exhibit and participants will have the chance to print their own conversation bubble. Both of these events require registration through the Puget Sound Book Arts organization. Click here<\/strong><\/a> and go to the calendar to register.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
