John B. Cade Library celebrates National Library Week

It’s National Library Week

John B. Cade Libary at Southern University is celebrating National Libary Week with a number of in-person and virtual activities. The national theme, "Welcome to Your Library," promotes the idea that libraries extend far beyond the four walls of a building. Cade Library has adapted to unprecedented changes in the world by expanding services and continuing to meet the needs of patrons.

 

Events:

National Library Week Kick-Off
Promotional Video Launch Book Giveaway-Join Us on the breezeway and pick up free books all week!

Food for Fines Promotion
“Pay” your library fines with donations of non-perishable food items. Each item will equal $2 removed from overdue fines up to $50. Expired, damaged, or opened items will not be accepted. Collected food will be donated to a local food pantry. Outstanding items must be returned and donations brought to the library circulation desk before fines are forgiven. This promotion will continue through April 28.

Digital Literacy Day
Join Cade Library in launching its digital literacy initiative across the SU System. The library recognizes the important role technology plays in classrooms to improve instruction and increase learning opportunities for students. The pandemic has heightened the need for digital learning as we continue to provide service and communicate with colleagues and students across a patchwork of digital platforms.
