Happy New Year!

One of the delicious things about working in academia is that we get TWO new years: the calendar new year and the academic new year. Last week we started a new academic year here at UNCG and to celebrate that fact in the UNCG HSML, I will share with you the bright faces starting this year with us!

Also, it has been almost a year since our last blogspot, but we're looking to reinvigorate our presence in the virtual world with a little help from some experts. Here's to new beginnings!

So, in alphabetical order by first names (yes, every now and again I am actually linear ;-) I give you the wonderful faces of our awesome student employees who will greet you at the HSML desk this semester! And because we were in the CITI lab for this opening of the year event, the door was the most colorful backdrop available. Enjoy!

Cheers to all and..Happy New Year!

Appreciating our Student Employees!!

Without whom we would not be able to operate...really!!  Here are the photos in the current display case in the Music Library paying homage to our wonderful employees in the Music Library - THANK YOU ALL!!

Also, each student chose a service or a format with which to celebrate to publicize the variety we offer here in the Music Library...and to have fun (thanks, Sonia, for the idea and the captions that I'll add soon).

In random order (actually, chronological order of photos taken, come to think of it):
