This will be my first time with a publication and some photography in it. (I'll be working in my role as the the official "unofficial" library photographer.) In addition to the reception, there are 2 speakers which is always fun. Last year the president was the MC. He was rather entertaining. I think the best part though is the bibliography, the committee puts together. Last year was the first year we posted it on the website, with links to articles, catalog results, and organizations websites.

I'm glad you enjoyed the video. I think the idea of highlighting different people around campus, whether it's faculty or staff builds social capital (and even better if the library hosts). I also like those ideas of faculty discussing their writing and research interests. It let's folks get to know them better but also emphasizes the importance of information literacy and being interested/passionate about a topic. Thanks Emily! I’m glad you enjoyed the video.

We host it in the library and had about two per month. I also started a lecture series where faculty talked about their writing and the process of publishing a book. It was a nice way to collaborate across campus and draw more people to the library. Also, I loved the video :) When I worked at SEMO, we had a lecture series where faculty presented their research.
