ANNOUNCEMENTS

LibQUAL+(TM) Summary Report: Last year, Whittemore Library conducted an assessment of their library services. Results of the survey are found here.

Featured MacNaughton books for July and August- The Man Who Loved China by Simon Winchester: "Joseph Needham (1900–1995) is the man who made China China, forming the West's understanding of a sophisticated culture with his masterpiece, Science and Civilization in China, says bestselling author Winchester. In a life devoted to recording the Middle Kingdom's intellectual wealth, Needham, an eccentric, brilliant Cambridge don, made a remarkable journey from son of a London doctor through scientist-adventurer to red scare target. In Winchester's (The Professor and the Madman) estimable hands, Needham's story comes to life straightaway." (Publishers Weekly)

Books by Larry McMurty: "It wasn't enough for Pulitzer Prize-winning author Larry McMurtry to become one of the most prolific, bestselling, and beloved of American writers. Besides writing nearly forty books, including the Pultizer Prize-winning novel Lonesome Dove, he has emerged as one this nation's greatest bookmen. In Books: A Memoir, McMurtry shares with readers his lifelong passion and dogged pursuit of books." (Amazon)

Exhibit runs through until September 2008.
