Want to catch up on what’s happening in The Ames Library this week? No need to look any further. Remember – if you ever have any questions, all you need to do is call extension 3900 or stop by the Help@Ames Desk on the entry level of the library.
ILLiad – the program used to lend and borrow items from other libraries – is up and running again. Tony Heaton is working through all the requests; if you have any questions or concerns about items you have requested, please contact Tony at x3224, theaton@iwu.edu
Humans vs. Zombies – are you going to be a Zombie, scavenging for human meat? Or are you going to be a Human, desperately trying to survive the IWU Zombie Apocalypse? Either way, remeber that Ames Library is a Safe Zone, which means no attacks can happen within the building. Humans beware, however, it’s a long walk (or run) from the front of Ames to the next safe zone. Make sure you’re carrying plenty of ammo (socks)!
The International Film Series will be screening “Everything is Illuminated,” from 7-10pm on Monday evening as part of the Iron Curtain Symposium. The Mellon Center is also sponsoring a movie screening from 7-10pm on Thursday evening for the Cold War Gateway.
