We’re heartbroken by the passing of Dolly Parton, a champion of literacy and lifelong reading.

Through her Imagination Library, Dolly helped put hundreds of millions of free books into children’s hands. In 2023, American Library Association honored her with an honorary lifetime membership for her lasting impact on libraries and literacy.

Thank you, Dolly. ❤️

Welcome to all of our new & returning Rams! Does this building look familiar? This photo is of St. John's Hall, which you'll recognize if you've just moved into Queen's Court! It looks a bit different now that a century has gone by, but if anything it’s even more beautiful today.

Today is , the Gaelic festival marking the beginning of the harvest season, and traditionally held halfway between the summer solstice and the fall equinox.

Lughnasadh customs persisted widely until the 20th century, with the event being given various names such as "Crom Dubh Sunday". Crom Dubh is a mythological and folkloric figure of Ireland, based on the god Crom Cruach, mentioned in the 12th-century onomastic text, Dindsenchas. Check it out for yourself, today!
