Hi everyone! There has been interest expressed in donating books throughout commencement- although we appreciate donations, do not bring books to the Rock (or any other library) at this time. You can drop off books in the center of University Hall until 4 pm today and then business hours starting Tuesday. Thank you for all of your support!

If anyone is in need of some Foucault, Derrida, or Arrendt texts for any of their classes, the FLIP Library has just received a generous donation containing this exact supply.
Check out our inventory (in the about section of this page) to see if we have any of the books you need!

A huge thank you to the Modern Culture and Media DUG as well as Victor Bramble for making this happen.
