The library staff has an idea for a new art competition and we need your help to determine if there is enough interest. In lieu of the Library's participation in the University-wide art competition, it was suggested the Library sponsor a book art competition.
What is book art?
There are so many types of book art out there and we have included some for you to see here in this blog. Masland Library's definition of book art is: Art that is either designed or created using books as the main creative element.
Styles?
Sculptures, origami, architecture, and so many other styles can be used.
Are you interested?
If you are can you please comment here or on Facebook after this post.
Everybody blogs. Some people blog without ever realizing that they are blogging. It is to be expected that in a society that runs on instant communication, most Americans are connected to the internet 24/7. With the increasing affordability of mobile devices -- iPhones, Blackberrys, Palm pilots and other PDAs -- one can access information such as sports scores, movie times, or directions to avoid an accident up ahead with the touch of a button. Now it is rare to meet a college student who does not have a Facebook or MySpace page.
With this in mind Masland Library has decided to provide information to the students via this format as much possible. Therefore the library created this blog as a place in which the librarians can share with you pertinent information and other items of interest.
This blog is only one of several new tools that the library will explore. The library will cooperate with faculty members via wiki to introduce you to study guides, research aids, and databases unique to subject matters of interest to each of the schools of the University.
Welcome back. Please keep an eye on this page for more postings. We also solicit your comments. Have a great semester.
