Juvenile Books • Picture Books, Fiction

The following books have been added to the juvenile circulating collection. You will find them shelved in the new books display on the 2nd floor, outside the IRC, or in their regular location.

IRC Hours: December 2

Archer Library and the Instructional Resource Center will open at 1 p.m. today due to the announced four-hour delay. Please check the Ashland University website for additional information.

"Ashland University is issuing a four-hour delay this morning, Tuesday, Dec. 2, for both its main campus and its College of Nursing and Health Sciences on the Mansfield campus due to the inclement weather across the region. That means 8 a.m., 9:25 a.m. and 10:50 a.m. classes are cancelled. 12:15 p.m. classes will meet as scheduled. University offices will remain open and will formally open to the public at 1 p.m."
