What's New at the Library?!

New Policies!
New Services!
New Equipment!
New Books & Media!

We've been plenty busy getting ready for the 2012-2013 school year. So busy, in fact, that we had to create a What's New! library guide to tell you about all the changes. We'll be updating the guide periodically (and tell you about those updates here), so check back often!

A Year of Creativity

The University of Utah is embracing a "Year of Creativity" in 2012-2013, which is being promoted by The MUSE Project, the Creative Campus Initiative (headed by the Dean of the College of Fine Arts), and the Undergraduate School.  Everyone's being encouraged to read "Imagine: How Creativity Works."  The book's a fun, quick read, despite the author, Jonah Lehrer admitting to fabricating some quotes. As a result of his confession, the publisher has pulled access to print and electronic copies of the book (for now, at least). You can still read it, though, by checking out a Marriott Library copy at the Reserve Desk on Level 2 (call number: BF408 .L455 2012)
