National Library Week Celebration and Events at the UW Law Library

Happy National Library Week! Stop by the UW Law Library this week and help us celebrate. For our celebration this year, we've put together a number of activities including games, displays, and faculty/staff READ posters.

READ Posters
This year's posters feature, Louis Butler, Justice in Residence, and the Law School IT Team, Eric Giefer, Darryl Berney, Karen Koethe and Joel Santodomingo.

Want to star in your very own READ poster? Then head over to the MERIT Education Library (formerly the CIMC) this week with your favorite book. They'll take your photo and create a poster for you.

Reference Book of the Day
National Library Week is also an ideal time to discover some library resources of which you may not be aware. Look for the Reference Book of the Day on display at the reference desk. You might just find a few hidden gems in our collection.
