Welcome Back Events A Great Success!

The staff at the Addlestone Library would like to thank all of the students and staff members that helped make the Library's Welcome Back Festivities a great success!

The heated competition during Monday night's RISK game in the Rotunda proved to be a crowd favorite. Stay tuned for another exciting game night soon!

Evan shows that he is the master of all things trivial during Tuesday night's You Don't Know Jack trivia contest. Legends were made, feelings were hurt, but most importantly, fun was had by all!


The screening of the Lost Skeleton of Cadavra on the south side of the John Rivers Garden on Wednesday evening brought many out to see the lost B-movie satire (and favorite of our intrepid Media Collections Librarian, Jared Seay). Fortunately, the weather cooperated and the movie was enjoyed by all.
