Hi, I’m Pascal the Bookworm! – The SCF Library is excited to participate in resource sharing through the PASCAL consortium. Pascal, a traveling plush bookworm, visits libraries across the network, helping showcase the power of shared academic resources. We’re proud to be part of this collaboration and look forward to sharing photos of Pascal around our campuses!
