An image from Archives and Special Collections that feels very appropriate for the weather we've been experiencing lately. This photo spread comes from a 1972 issue of "The Podium", which was the primary University publication produced by the Publicity and Public Relations Office in the late 1960s and early 1970s. The Classroom building and the Heating Plant are featured in the background. Image credit: U of R Archives, The Podium Volume 3 Number 12 March 17, 1972. Photographer: U of R Photography Department 72-019.

There’s still time to read and join us for the last Archer Book Club session for fall! On Wednesday November 18th from 12:00(noon) - 1:00pm, we will be chatting about "Good natured: the origins of right and wrong in humans and other animals" written by Frans de Waal. Staff, faculty and students are all welcome! Please note the book club meets virtually and a zoom link will be sent to all participants closer to the meeting.... https://archerlibraryblog.wordpress.com//last-archer-book/

Power has been restored and Archer Library will reopen on Wednesday, November 11 for reduced hours (8:15 a.m. to 4:15 p.m.), in observance of Remembrance Day, for solo study space and curbside pickup

Have you checked out the library's leisure guide yet? One section is dedicated to holidays and celebrations, which will be updated chronologically. We just added a tab for Diwali, the Hindu festival of lights. There are interesting reads and videos to explore all about this celebration!

Due to the power outage, the Archer Library building is closed. Curbside pickup is not available and all library bookings are suspended until further notice. Affected students are being notified by email. Live chat and online services remain unaffected.
