It’s “Wayback Wednesday!” Check out this pic from the last day of school in 2015 when students were told they could check out as many books as they wanted and keep them all summer. I’d call this “invitation accepted!” 😁👍📚

It’s summer, and everyone is off doing summery things (including your librarians) so to keep the IG vibe going let’s revisit some previous posts, and what better way to start off than this display for Middle School summery books. We hope you’re enjoying your summer reads so far! 📚

In Selma AL today, a commemoration was held marking the 60th anniversary of the clash between law enforcement officers and civil rights protesters on March 7, 1965. That day became known as “Bloody Sunday.” During that protest, Georgia Congressman John Lewis led the first of three Selma to Montgomery marches across the Edmund Pettus Bridge, during which state troopers and police attacked the marchers, including Lewis. The attack shocked the nation and galvanized support for the U.S. Voting Rights Act of 1965.

Every day when students come into Woodruff Library, they walk past this beautiful photograph by Scott Cunningham, depicting the funeral of Congressman Lewis as his casket was carried across the Edmund Pettus Bridge on July 30, 2020. We’re so grateful to Elisa and Bobby Ezor for the generous donation of this moving tribute to Congressman Lewis and the opportunity to share this pivotal moment in U.S. history with all of our visitors.

Today a group of teachers and students went to see the final performance of “Remember This: The Lesson of Jan Karski,” a one-man-show starting Pace alum Andrew Benator ‘89. It was amazing! Also amazing was our good fortune in being able to sit next to retired English teacher Ricks Carson!
